Mine will. Maybe 20K on a rebuild. Any speed below 20. Just apply a little pressure and let the syncro work. Drops right in. That being said I don't do that very often at all. I'm aware of the rebuild costs so I typically wait until 5mph or so. More often if I find the need to be in first gear "right now" I'll double clutch and bump the revs to help smooth the shift. -J
