TC driveshaft and worn tranny
Posted: Sat Feb 02, 2013 8:34 am
I have a serviceable original drive-shaft, and a "worn" original transmission available. These were removed to make way for a new 5 speed.
The tranny gave up a thrust bearing of indeterminate origin when pieces of it flushed out whilst I was changing fluid. Prior to that time, it exhibited worn syncros and and "loose" gates when shifting (i.e. you had to carefully maneuver the shifter). The unit will definitely require a full strip down and rebuild.
The parts are in central Connecticut and shipping would be expensive due to weight and sizes. I have no price listed and would be interested in offers.
