I can't imagine it hasnt been mentioned during the course of this thread (I haven't kept up with it) but you'll want to have a "new" 3/4 slider put in as well. It's the one famous in the 091's for going out and then you can't keep 4th in 4th ... pops out. That slider has a weakness in its design and seems to crack in 2-3 pieces, if I'm remembering what's been discussed here in the past. bob '87 Syncro Westy with AATransaxle rebuild inside
> I am having the tranny rebuilt locally and (at least somewhat) professionally. New bearings/syncs, first gear, a 1-2 slider, seals, etc. all or most from Long Enterprises. This is not inexpensive by any means but tranny work is not something I would tackle in case anyone was thinking that I was thinking of doing it myself. > |
