Subject:      Manual Transmission, what to do?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII


I posted some of this before but I need to decide what I'm doing and do
it.


I have a 7 year old Mofocco rebuild manual transmission in a 1984
Vangon.
It just started popping out of 4th gear.  Can go about a  mile and it
wants to
pop out if I accelerate a little or vary speed.


So should I take it to a tranmission shop locally?  (They probably
don't know
about the 3/4 slider gear problem and would put factory parts in?)


Or should I order a remanufactured one from who?


I know Bus Depot carries them.
FastGerman has them?
Just Vee Dubs etc.


Who is the best?  I have a new Boston 2.1 in this Van so
the cost isn't the biggest issue.   I'd like the strongest rebuild
possible.


Thanks.
John.
