Manual Transaxle: Notes

The manual transaxle is a fully synchronized 5-speed transaxle. The forward gears are selected by a synchronizer mechanism. The 3rd gear, 4th gear and 5th gear synchronizers are mounted on the input shaft. First gear and 2nd gear synchronizers are mounted on the mainshaft. The helical-cut forward gears are in constant mesh with the corresponding gears on the opposing shaft. The manual transaxle features a synchronized reverse gear. The reverse gears have helical-cut teeth and are engaged through a synchronizer.
