| Getrag had shifted the remanufacture of its WM5G1 and WM6G1
gearboxes from its Getrag America facility to an outside firm, Component Remanufacturing Specialists, Inc.
(CRS). Apparently, Getrag has been supplying
CRS with the necessary parts to repair these units all along. Therefore,
there exists a "well-oiled" mechanism for getting
parts out of Germany. Mr. Donnelson states that CRS is willing to sell
parts directly - either to dealerships or to individuals. This is a win-win situation because CRS has a lot of experience with these parts which should result in rapid and accurate order fulfillment. I would suggest however, that each of us do our homework before calling CRS so we don't expend too much their time troubleshooting our gearbox problems over the phone. Remote diagnosis is something that they aren't set up for, and may cause them to have seconds thoughts about selling direct. |

| 1st/2nd each have 3 rings. The blocking ring is the one that mainly wears out, but there may be damage on the others. Or you may want to replace them all as they don't cost too much. 1st and 2nd gear each has its own separate set of rings. The remaining speeds (3rd-5th and reverse) just have one synchro ring each. | ||

| The rubber plug in the back is part B59, and it costs $1.18. I don't know what purpose it serves; it's not a drain, filler, or breather. I may be able to figure it out when I pull mine apart. There is a gasket ring shown on the drawing (B60), but CRS doesn't stock it. They say to coat it with Loctite before assembling. I'd replace it, rubber deteriorates. | ||
