I am having problems with my 1997 Viper GTS gears the 2th gear does not shift anymore and there is a loud rattle or crackle in the gear " i guess its broken for shore"
It happened when i was trying out the acceleration of the car and when i shift it to 2th gear it didn't go throw and there was a loud sound like "Shifting with out pushig the clutch"
I installed a new light wight flywheel and a new stage 3 clutch a month ago to improve shifting and power.
Last time i rebuild it with some used parts from a salvaged viper a year ago ! i guess that was a bad idea !
I need help for finding a store where i can find the parts that i need to rebilud and improve the transmation to
withstand the power and maybe to improve my 5th and 6th gear to get some top end speed and make it stronger.
I dont have any experience in gears if any one has any good ides i will be very happy :)

Good Idea: Replace your trans with an SRT-10 transmission. Direct bolt in, better transmission overall. (just drill it for the speed sensor...boss is still on the case)

Best Idea: G-Force Transmission Upgrade.

it shouldnt be more than 2-3k for the tranny the only trouble im seeing for you is shipping ,i think shipping should be another 1k if you can find a shipping company to deliver it to you over there in saudi.

PartsRack can provide an SRT-trans for under $2000 with less than 100 miles on it!

Again, I encourage you with ANY questions about your Viper, before investing in parts you may not need to contact Chuck Tator at tatorsdodge.msn.com. You can email him, as you are in Saudi Arabia, or if you can call--even better. He's THE ViperWizard-ViperTech for our region, and is the most knowledgeable Viper guy around. I'm sure he can advise you as to what you can do, and possibly what parts you really need to buy. JonB would be the person to buy from!! Just my .02 for what it's worth. :dunno: ~juli~

I have a rockland road race tranny in my car.

Not enough miles on it yet to form an opinion on durability, but it's claimed to be pretty strong. I also got closer ratio 5th and 6th gears on it so I could pull harder in 5th and 6th.
