Kzj70 gearbox issue

[876 Cruisers]

A few months ago I started to experience problems with shifting, the 1st and 2nd gear would sometimes lock me out and not go fully into gear. Checked the master clutch and slave and found that the slave was bad so I replaced the slave and rebuilt the master. Upon doing so was still having the issue so I took down the gearbox and found the pressure plate was a bit worn so I changed it. Fitted everything back together and the problem still remains. Ended up changing the master clutch to a aftermarket one while I wait on the genuine one. The issue is still there but isnt as bad as before and idk what else to look for or do. I dont think the synchros are ready to he changed yet.

Has anybody else experience a similar issue and what was done to fix the issue?

Thanks in advance for any advice

Take the gear stick out replace the pivot bush and the cap on the end of the gear stick.

Thanks for the reply. I solved the issue few months back. It was simply the gear oil that needed to change. I used some synthetic 90 grade oil and all issues I had were resolved
