The transmission is the part of a vehicle that provides the torque needed to move it under a variety of road and load conditions. The complete transmission consists of a series of gears, splined shafts, bearings and differentials. Synchronizers are used in manual transmissions to ensure that gears and sliding sleeves that are about to mesh, rotate at the same speed due to friction between them during gear shifting.

With increased mileage and hard driving, the synchronizers, gears and bearings will require quality maintenance and overhaul to keep the shifting of gears smooth and efficient.

For motor sports activities, Dog Transmissions are used to transfer engine power. Dog Transmissions are used mostly due to their fast and accurate gear shift. Specific clearances in the gears are important in deciding the precise assembly and maintenance of these. This will determine the reliability and performance of the Dog Transmission in high power and race applications.



1. Disassembly and Cleaning of Metal Components
With mileage, sludge tends to build up around the selectors, gears and transmission components. This in turn causes the gear shifting process to be misaligned or gives most drivers a "tight" and uncomfortable gear shift feeling. The transmission is thus disassembled into its individual components and cleaned to remove all sludge and dirt from within.

2. Maintenance Check on Components
Each component is checked thoroughly, especially the synchronizers and selectors, to see if replacement is required. Any parts that are worn will be replaced.

3. Assembly Process
During the assembly of the transmission, bearing clearance is checked to ensure that the components are fitted properly. The components are also torque to the required specifications on different transmissions.
