who wants a PEZ?!  Group: Members Posts: 1,993 Joined: 27-December 02 From: south-(not north)-wick, MA Member No.: 32 Region Association: North East States  |
for those in the know, how hard is it for someone who has never torn into a transaxle, but has a modicum of mechanical aptitude, to rebuild one? can it be done with standard hand tools and a bench or would the new tool investment make it more worthwhile to have brad build one up and ship it out east? just curious. have area available for work and would like to have a mechanical project, engine or trany, but not waste my time or rapidly diminishing $......
thanks....... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

I can only think of 2-3 special tools needed to do it your self.
Have it done locally. Dont ship the box anywhere. Used parts are just that.. used parts. A slider may have good teeth on it for dog engagment but may be completely WORN out for the synchro ring engagment. This wont show up until the tranny wont stay in gear. I'm sorry... but unless the tranny is for one of my race cars (meaning that it comes apart frequently and I have to deal with it) I'm not installing "good used" parts in a box. Again.. 914 owner "cheaping out". B |
