Dont worry about me. I know exactly what to do.

Then why are you asking if you should do it

Get it done already if you know what to do.

unless you mean that you know you need to bring it to a real shop.. I'd worry about you. My guess is that you couldn't tell the difference between the gears once you open up the tranny

If you get into the inside of the tranny, it's a big cluster fuck with big / little gears all over the place. In reality, it's not complicated. However if you are untrained, you will just see a bunch of gears and have no idea what to do. Putting a wave washer or thrust bearing on backwards can completely screw up everything.

lol the wave washer / thrust bearing stuff is for A/ts :P woops

Theres a bunch of people on here without DSM's I think. You don't get kicked out if you sell your DSM and don't get another Mitsu product. Hell I don't own a DSM anymore and don't know the greatest amount about them, so now i just come on here to bug people like you.....haha

The first try i had the car in first gear and it was all messed up the second time i put it in neutral, i didnt take the balls out. Do you think theres somthing wrong with the detent not moving anything.

niterydr · 11-02-2006

If the balls aren't in the rails the car will not beable to get gears.

As I said, you'd be better off not touching it. The more shit you mess up, the more it will cost.

Sorry if i want to experience things and fix it myself than have my mom or dad pay for it to get fixed for me.

tjg · 11-03-2006

I'm pretty sure all i have to do is align the detents does anybody know how to do this?

tjg · 11-04-2006

Anybody?

Outlaw1 · 11-04-2006

You need to do a search for the Mitsu transmission repair manual. I think it's on one of the Gallant boards.

tjg · 11-04-2006

I couldnt find anything.

tjg · 11-04-2006

Well, looks like i'm taking the transmission out sunday and shipping it back to mitsubishi graveyard in new york. Hes fixing it for free and paying for shipping so that takes care of it, i did all i could do with the transmission being still in the car.

p.s. dont buy transmission from mitsubishigraveyard.com

How much did this tranny cost you? Shep ones are the best way to go...

These trannies are one of the weak links on all DSM's. The last place I would buy a tranny from is a mitsu dealer or anything of any kind. Shep or TRE is the way to go. Even for just a stock replacement *stage1*
