How to install a synchronized transmission in a Ford Model A

Yes. I thought that point was important enough to highlight in today's video also.

This video also shows how the new shift rail travel limit rings (they limit the shift forks from going past the detents and "over-shifting") work. A driver can slam the shifter into a gear without fear of damaging the fork or going past the gear mesh point. Really improves the Model A drivability and makes it even more "idiot proof".
