My bronco 2's fm146 took a dump on me. Started as a tapping then thumping and then banging. It only made noise in 1'st 2'nd &3rd' gear, but not 4'th thus the issue was on the counter shaft. As 4th is the only gear on the input shaft. Took it apart today and the main gear is all chipped to hell. Ordered a clutch, flywheel throw out bearing and slave cylinder. Rear main as well. Any idea where to find an fm146 for under $1600.00?
Dustin Shaffer I ended up getting two others from a friend so I took 3 and built 1 good luck finding one. The fm143-145-146 are all the same internals check car-part.com
5th gear explodes in these transmission. very common problem. on second rebuild they only last for about 20k miles.
There is a solution to this problem it was a updated spacer or gear. Since rebuilding I’ve had no problem problems
