New member here! My 1st question...anyone know reason my tranny won't shift into 4th?

I've had my '92 for almost 2yrs now and when i bought it tranny worked fine except for lag shifting from 1st to 2nd. But then about a year after purchase it stopped shifting into 4th. Anyone who might know why this happened I'd appreciate any insight!! Thanks!

Welcome to the site!!

Coming to lag between 1st to 2nd can be adjusted by doing brake band adjustment. Since you are saying that now it wont shift to 4th, it clearly hints you that the tranny is going bad sooner or later. Start looking for a 4.44 if you want an auto again or else a 5spd for manual.

But others can give u more input on this.

gud luck,
-Pavan.

I can help on the 4.44's. Check out my website link in my siggy and look under the "SVX performance" category there.

Found threads about tranny problems

Well after reading further threads about tranny problems I guess it comes down to the high clutch. Is this correct? Also may be combined with brake band needing adjustment.

i dont think the brake band adjustment would really fix the going into 4th problem but you mind as well do it. i believe there is a how to doc for it.
