Is this normal or is mine stuffed? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92663-fg-manual-gearbox/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go test drive another fg manual T and see if its the same... Mine feels a bit harsh with 1st ans 2nd change but smooth from 3rd to 6th. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92663-fg-manual-gearbox/#findComment-1621495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
