GREAT video, thanks! I saw videos of that repair, but there was no information how to set up this synchronizer if it fall apart, now everything is clear. Now I am ready to take a risk and repair my car by myself.
Thanks for the video! Did the job yesterday as I had a tiny bit of vibration when driving in 5th up to 100km/h. Turned out the drive gear incl. synchro etc. was still neat but the lock nut on the driven gear has came loose and so the spline on the shaft and the gear itself have worn out pretty bad. Used supertough Loctite on the spline and thread for reassembly. Vibration is gone, let's see how long :D Cheers
Thanks so much for this. Going to attempt this on my 99 rav4 as soon as the parts arrive. I have one question about the puller- what size and pitch are the 3 bolts you use?
Hi where did you order your parts from, or more specifically the synchro hub part? I got mine from a UAE seller on eBay and was worried it might be a fake or something with how carelessly it was debured/finished, but I see mine looks very similar to the one you installed.
hi i have a 1997 toyota rav4 its done the 5th gear im in australia the toyota company cant find the 5th gear numbers do u still have the numbers to buy then or can you reply with the parts numbers so i can order them here in australia thanks brett
Hi ! I tried to extract the 3 holes gear with the right tool (pull extractor) as shon in your video but it looks bloked. I can't extract it ! Do you have an idea of the problem ? Thanks.
@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319 you state the synchro is included in the repair kit, but after checking it is not included. does that mean I have to order the synchro apart ? if so, would you mind sharing the part number for it.
@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319 alright perfect, thank you. I was told by my previous mechanic this job would set me back NA$23,000(US$1235), which is totally an unreasonable price. Your video gave me back some hope thank you so much.
@@jarojunius5449 that is unreasonable, take pics during disassembly, usually dont need a new synchro, just the parts in the repair kit, it wont hurt to replace it though,,,, i think its like $160 but you might have to assemble it
I decided to replace my fifth-gear sleeve, bearing, synchronizer, and hub for my 1996 RAV4 MANUAL by following multiple videos along with this post very closely 5th Gear Popping out Self-Repair. I finished just about everything except when trying to press the new hub with the old, the 12mm 1.5 thread pitch 55mm bolt (with a washer) is extremely hard to tighten and it seems to be creating a new thread on the bolt which is wider. I don't really know what to do at this point, I'm trying to see if I can find a gear pusher tool in the auto parts stores around my area. Can anyone help me out?
first verify the bolt is correct… where did you get it and was the package sealed. also sounds like you will need a new bolt. you can probably clean the threads of the shaft and might need to re-tap them. thread in the new bolt without the gear to make sure it goes in good, next clean the shaft with fine sandpaper or emery cloth, spray with a light coat of lube, do same with the socket bore, you can even heat it to help it expand a little
i bought three bolts, one of them i got at napa and the other at home depot both came in their original packaging and said 12mm, 1.5 thread pitch, and 55mm in length. I even bought a 1.25 thread pitch at home depot after both didn’t fit, i’ve yet to try the 1.75 which from what it seems is what i need because the threads in the other two are too close to each other. As far as retapping it goes would I need to do that for inside of the shaft and not outside? I’ll take pictures of the bolts and the shaft tomorrow, I’m going to try the 1.75 pitch tomorrow as well and hopefully that works out better.@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319
when you removed the assembly with the puller, did you use the part that goes on the end of the screw or did the screw go into the shaft threads, the threads probably got damaged at that point
screw went into the shaft threads and didn’t work, then i used the attachment and it came out seems like i did mess the shaft threads up. what can i do to fix it now?@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319
Very useful video! I have the same problem on a Corolla Verso... the fifth no longer works. Was the split bearing the cause of the problem? (Toyota told me it was probably this 2 parts bearing...)
Exactly what we needed, thank you!

cool, take your time, work clean and take pics while disassembling….. not too bad a job.
what year is your RAV?
Thanks for the video!

awesome!!! a bit of a puzzle but its nice not having to remove the trans to do the job like most vehicles.
Help me out a lot this many thanks for sharing cheers

What are the part numbers you ordered?
Hi, thank you for the video. How long did the whole job take to complete? Many thanks
np, like 3-4 hrs for me and son in law… take your time, take pics,,,, have all parts on hand
How much is the synchro
Mine didn't pop right out it just keeps going round in circle once the puller is tight enough..what could be the problem
if you following all the steps and it just spins it sounds like incorrect puller setup
also on the large puller screw you should have an insert that lets the screw turn, the puller arms stay stationary and pull the gear out
@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319 Thanks so much it worked I hadnt included the extra piece at the tip

ordered original toyota part from wesley chapel toyota
@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319 cool, that makes me feel better then. Yours looks just like mine. Thanks!

best to input your vin to an online oem retailer to get number, there can be different parts… or call another dealer with vin
Hello all, I'm looking for how many teeth the 5th gear of 98 Rav 4. ebay gives me too many options 39, 40, 41??
Call dealer with vin, they will give you correct part number,,,, or pull cover and count
Hi ! I tried to extract the 3 holes gear with the right tool (pull extractor) as shon in your video but it looks bloked. I can't extract it ! Do you have an idea of the problem ? Thanks.
did you remove the clip holding the gear onto the shaft?
what year is your RAV?
Did you have to buy any new parts for the synchronizer? I swapped the 5th gear, bearings, and sleeve but my rav still pops out of 5th
those are the parts in the repair kit,,, maybe check the shaft for play and the other gears for wear and double check your assembly
@@hyundaiioniqkianiromainten3319 you state the synchro is included in the repair kit, but after checking it is not included. does that mean I have to order the synchro apart ? if so, would you mind sharing the part number for it.
@@jarojunius5449 if you need the synchro, supply your vin to dealer and ask for 5th gear synchro kit
