Hi I have the early non synchromesh 1st box, I want to replace the synchromesh rings on 2,3 and 4. Are all these synchromesh rings the same? Thanks.

Yep all 3 are the same part.

BTW I was in Kitchener/Waterloo yesterday (just noticed your location).

I was thinking Barrie was much closer to Toronto than 2 hours.

I live in Colorado but was out that way for a Job interview.

Barrie is 1 hour north of Toronto Kitchener/ Waterloo is about 2 west of us.
Do you know why it's called Kitchener, it used to be called Berlin ( big German community ) but during the first world war changed it's name. The Oktoberfest is well worth visiting.

I was a bit late for Octoberfest for sure, but it being a German settled town was not lost on me based on the names of the streets.
