Most likely the high rpm lock out is a compound problem of worn parts inside the unit along with flex in the drivetrain and the damages has occurred progressively before and during your attempts to remedy it with aftermarket parts. Now that those parts are in place, a fresh transmission should...

Most common issue with getting stuck in 3rd or 4th gear is a failure of the factory fork pads. This is where the after market pads we offer vastly improved durability of the unit.This picture shows the length of the 3/4 shift fork and how much leverage is uses to push the transmission into...

That appears to be a failure to the welding process attaching the two pieces together. I have not encountered this issue yet but have seen it in other similar designed gears for other units. Unless it becomes a frequent issue, it most likely is just a defective part.As for the cooler, usually...

Very common damage to the 2nd gear inside the MT82 causing it to get stuck in gear or pop out of gear.Matching synchronizer sleeve that engages the 2nd gear. You can see the damages to the teeth thus leading to grinding and lock out of gear.

Just for comparison sake.Areas circled in color show irregular tooth profiles on the factory gear leading to gear whine in the unit.Compared to our gear which is consistent, machined with tighter tolerances and operates quieter.

The shaft is a 28 mm diameter and uses a conventional 26 spline x 1.125" similar to what is found on the GT500 TR6060. Its made of forged SAE8620 material and the torque rating we set at 700lbs of torque although it will most likely exceed the capacity of the rest of the unit by a large margin...

On complete units, shipping runs about $250 round trip (this is business address to business address).As for cost to build the units. A stage 2 unit would run $1495.00. That includes all bronze fork pads, bronze shift stop bushing, all new seals, all new synchronizer rings, REM polished...

The TR3160 has been out for a while in a couple of GM applications. Its like a lighter duty version of the TR6060. For the money, I would think doing a T56 Magnum XL or a TR6060 makes more sense than buying a new TR3160.For half that price, you can upgrade your existing MT82.

The MT82 is a decent unit once upgrades have been made internally and the flex is reduced in the drivetrain.
