Detent Kit

A detent kit is a set of components used to improve or repair the detent mechanism in a manual transmission. The detent mechanism is responsible for holding the transmission in gear and preventing it from slipping out of gear during operation. A detent kit can be used to repair a worn or damaged detent mechanism, or to upgrade the detent mechanism to improve shifting performance. Upgraded kits may include components such as stronger detent springs or larger detent balls, which can improve shift feel and accuracy.

When installing a detent kit, it is important to choose a kit that is compatible with the specific make and model of the transmission being repaired. It is also recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully to ensure proper assembly and optimal performance. Additionally, it is important to check the detent mechanism for wear or damage during routine transmission maintenance, as a worn or damaged detent mechanism can lead to shifting problems or damage to the transmission.
