Subject:      Transmission quits after 310,000 miles
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


The four speed in my 87 Vanagon is stuck between third and fourth (probably
 the victim of the common problem with the 3/4 slider).  I have an
automatic  transaxle, accelerator cable, axles, shifter, starter from and 84 that I
would  like to install.  The only part I am missing is the control rod which
runs  from the shifter to the shift arm on the transmission.  This should
be easy  to fabricate.   Are there recommendations on how to have the torque
converter and transmission tested for proper operation before this
conversion?  I would like to know they are working before I transplant  them.


Thanks,
Enrico Dagastino
