Billet keys, bronze fork pads and a steel 3-4 fork if yours is aluminum. Those 3 things fix the normal issues with the T56. If your main shaft and the 5-6 cluster are worn then get a stronger 27 spline mainshaft. For big power you can get a 30 spline main but that requires a C6 diff.
I've always used www.thegearbox.org/home.html and ampdistributing.com/collections/t56-6-speed-transmission. I've been getting my differential parts from www.txdrivetrain.com/ with great results and will probably buy trans parts from them in the future. www.tickperformance.com is another good parts source. Mainly just depends on who has the parts in stock but thegearbox is my main supplier and I have no complaints with their service or parts quality.

wow man you know your stuff. whats a rebuild from you like this end up costing? thanks!
So far I've just been rebuilding them as a hobby for friends and family but it's not hard to invest a couple of grand just in parts.
Do you recommend any online stores that sell quality rebuild parts for the T-56? I want the best quality parts when I rebuild mine.
