I had a clunk problem too, but then I took the bottle of wiper fluid
outta my bed. 8) Sorry, guys -- just trying to add a little levity
to an otherwise humorless sitchy-ation.

Seriously though, I have had zero problems with the synchros &
grinding, and zero problems with it popping out of gear. It is
notchier than I'd like it, but hey -- it's a truck. That's what I
always thought about it.

You all have got me to thinking, though, about what I'll have to do to
the drivetrain when I eventually have the money for a blower. I am at
21k miles now, and within the next month or so, I'm switching to
Redline from stem to stern.
