Aston Martin Db4 Synchro Rings David Brown Gearbox Db5 Good Lightly Used Set on 2040-parts.com

Here is a set of 6 synchro rings for the DB gearbox as used in the DB4 and early DB5. These look almost new but have a story (or two). Four of them came out of a newly rebuilt gearbox done by another shop. When the car came here it had no synchro action on any gear. The reason was that they rebuilt an early box with shallow slots on the synchros and bought new synchros with deep slots which are all that is available. When you do this you have to replace the short saddles that go in the slots with the later long ones otherwise the synchros are not pressed into action. We were not taking any chances when we redid the box so we used all new synchros. So four of these are really essentially brand new. I think the story on the other two was similar but can't really remember. As these cost about $500 each when they are available I don't want to throw them away but also don't want to use them here in the shop where the customer is paying for brand new parts. The "threads" inside all have plenty of meat and don't show any signs of wear. These are the same for 1,3, and 4 but different for 2 as the direction of the "threads" is reversed. I assume most of these are for 1,2, and 4 and maybe a couple for 2 but you will have to figure that out.
