Then after Mopar discontinued the synchronizer sets, there were no more new sliders available. This left Neon SRT-4 owners with one less critical component for repairing the T-850 transmission. We spent considerable time developing, manufacturing, and testing a high-quality replacement to help keep these cars on the road.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter producing our prototypes, we installed and tested them in our own Neon SRT-4.
