It is stuck in third. It will need syncro and while you're in there, bearings. It would last a long while then.
It's been in the truck for seven or eight years. I owned it for three and dave had it for four, and the guy before me had it done a few years before that so even longer.
now here's the kicker. The guy before me used it in his landscaping business hauling shit. I used it to move, and hauled motors, tires, moved from Puyallup to Seaside... Then made 5 half ton runs to the dump (some were more than a half ton), daily drove it for 3 years. And it was just fine. When the motor was pulled 6 years back, some of the fluid drained out of the trans. I very well could have put the wrong fluid in (GL5) as I was pretty new to the datsuns, but can't remember. that may or may not have caused the syncro to die.
Long tail is pretty rare. Mike, with the longer shafts, do they use bigger bearings? Thought I had read that somewhere.
