mk4 golf tdi drw 02m gearbox stuck in gear any advise

[adaptorman]

lucky i have a fair amount of spare 02m 6 speeds , but this one was perfect no wines/noises , or gear problem , i only changed gear and its stuck wont come out , tryed removing linkage cables , oil is clean , so ill strip the buggar and check for worn shifter forks or worn sincro or something ,,,, anything i could check , or dose any one have pics of strip rebuild and checking internals of these

right guys here goes , my 20.00 bargin ebay 02m 6speed drw code gearbox arrived stuck in 3rd gear i was told , so thought was worth a strip to see
so first looks like the corriuer services dropped the buggar due to gear linkage been snaped


anyway stripped the buggar

after inspecting the sycros ,cogs , bearings found the problem
one rivit had snapped on the shifter fork and and notch had broke , (maybe from the other guy trying to get it into gear ,


so due to having plenty of 02m spares , replaced parts and rebuilt it back ,, cheep gearbox it thow on my caddy
