R32 Rb20 Not Selecting Gears

[gemgem]

hey guys i got in my car on friday morning and started it and went to put it in reverse but it wouldnt click into gear.

you can only click it into 5th and move it the right side of neautral and clutch in or out doesnt make a difference.

there were no signs at all of a f**ked gearbox anytime before that. i drove it thursday night and it was running fine.

the clutch has slipped before but nothing major. all i can think of is a broken fork selecter or something?

any help would be great.

sometimes if you brake after reversing it makes a sort of clunk noise - uni's?

cheers,

tim

had a problem like this once yrs ago in pulsar 5spd box.

it was the bearings the selector shaft travels in, you know the shaft the gear stick moves.

bearings were almost worn through there side and allowed the shaft to kick sideways so badly couldn't get into reverse at all and 1st near impossible.

split box, replaced bearings, these are slipper type bronzed bearings, reseal box and like near new again.

if your lucky that's all it is.

it was fairly cheap repair DYI.
