Okay, if i need to replace parts... WOuld i be able to save the cost of replacing the gears by going with a faceplated gear from liberty? Do they just remove the synchro teeth and weld on their part? What about the sliders? Is theirs a custom made one or is it machined from a stock unit?
You don't need any gears just get a rebuild kit with new brass and you should be good to go for about $200 . Face-Plate from Liberty's would run you about $75 per gear and I think the sliders would run about $125-$150 each and get ready to wait 2-6 months to get your gears back.
Here's pic of my face-plated Richmond race box
