Hey Marlin, Just got a 87 runner w/ 233,000 mi W56-B tranny that has a hard time going into 1st, It will do into 1st with a little clutch manipulation, when I do get it in 1st and shift to 2nd sometimes it has a hard time gettin in to gear...
I have the same problem getting my W56 into first, but only when its cold. I have no other problems getting the tranny into any other gear. Just first. As soon as it warms up, 1st gear is not a problem. What do you guys think? The clutch feels okay. Not 100%, but decent. I did a tranny flush not too long ago and poured the right amount of fluid into the tranny. What do you guys suggest?
