I have a 70 sierra with a 3 speed on the coloum (aka 3 on the tree) well sometimes it will refuse to go into 2nd gear and i can hear some noise coming from the inside of my steering coloum, does anyone know possibly what the problem could be?

 

sounds like some worn parts in the shift part of the column.......pull the wheel and start looking for worn or failed bushings in that area of the column

 

i pulled it apart and cleaned/oil some stuff but its still doin it. Im hoping its not in the transmission.

 

could also be the clutch is worn

 

Brand New clutch. Thanks for your help but im getting so aggravated with it.lol

 

I don't know if that tranny has syncro. or not, but that would be my guess. One thing to try is to see if you can double clutch while going into second to see if that will allow you to shift. If you can then I would say the syncro. on 2nd is going bad.
