Default Re: Anyone here with tranny exp willing to help?

you ever done one?

you have a press?

new bearings, seals, and blocker rings for the synchros? its not an undertaking you want to do if its your first time, but if you want to, good luck! i am always for someone wanting to learn more on their car, but in this case, it will be better (IMO) for you to find a decent used tranny (wrecking yard or a GOOD online parts forum) i now you can find a dogbox setup for a GSX for 1800ish....so good finds may take some looking, but you should find one.


because if you do rebuild it, and it fucks up, you will have to replace all that shit again.....you need to not look at what it costs in the inital outset, but look at the long term (if that is a term that DSM'ers use )

if i can, i will try to check with some local wrecking yards and see what they have. you tried calling IAR in salem? or Old Dominion?
