Hello, Healeyphiles =E2=80=93 I received the message below from a BJ8 owner=

question for you on my transmission rebuilt is when I
was downshifting from third gear to second the gears were grinding I was al=
ways
having to double clutch to get it in the second gear. I have replaced just
about every part in the gearbox including the second gear which I thought w=

the problem as the synchro was bottoming out or touching the face of gear i=

was well worn. Went yesterday for my first test drive and all of the gears
worked perfectly and shifted very smoothly but when I try to downshift from
third to second it grinds terribly I had to come to a complete stop to be a=

fourth gears work very well as does reverse. Do you have any suggestions? I=
