Subject:Fwd: Transmission question AND front axle solution opportunity
From:ANTONY MARSH

Dear List

I have the opportunity to purchase a clean 86 Syncro with the tranny stuck in 2nd gear and for some unknown reason, the front axle disconnected.

Question to the learned Bretheren - what in your most experienced view - might be wrong with the tranny? �(FYI - It was replaced with a rebuilt tranny in 2002.)

Why would the front axle be disconnected?
There is a drive shaft and a re-man front axle shaft - still need to find another.

Questions are because - I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWERS �- but these are serious issues and I seek the wisdom of this wise and experienced Clan.

Thank you in advance.
