CAUTION: Fifth-reverse synchro hub and sleeve
can be installed backwards. One side of the sleeve
has double grooves and offset teeth. This side must
be installed away from reverse gear (towards 5th).
NOTE: The synchro hub is a press fit design. There
may be instances where the press is not necessary.
As long as there is a snug fit between the hub and
the shaft, the hub does not need to be replaced.
