Is your tranny feeling like this?

Send it to me and I will make it feel and perform like this!

If your tranny is feeling its age, grinding, and popping out of gear I have the solution for you! If you have checked the other, outside of the tranny causes for these symptoms and found them to be ok then your tranny may be in need of a rebuild.

Some outside of the tranny causes for some of your shifting woes:

-Shifter bushings along the shift rod
-Cone set screws
-Tranny cable adjustment, shifter adjustment
-Clutch, TO bearing, pressure plate
-Engine and tranny mounts

So, you have checked all of the above and it is still not working as it should. What do you do!?

Send it to me!

Repairs, modifications, conversions, you name it.

I am interested in getting your car shifting correctly and lasting a long time while providing you with the greatest value and service. If you have questions I would be happy to help you. If you want to take pics of your gear stack and get an opinion feel free to contact me. Do you want to bring it by and have me take it apart to diagnose it? I will gladly do this, and for free. I will diagnose any tranny for no charge.

I have a great stock of excellent used internal parts for much less than new with no loss in performance, as well as new, if you are interested. I have many different gear sets. I highly recommend all new main bearings; input shaft (x2), pinion shaft (x2) and differential (x2). I stock these bearing set at far less than retail.


For shipping instructions, PM me.


Any questions feel free to PM me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif)

Send it to me!

Options:

1. Send the whole thing to me for a full rebuild and reseal - $500 labor + parts
-Shipping is about $80 coast to coast with Greyhound (see below).
-Please clean the case! I do not have a tank for this.

2. Send the gear stack to me for a full rebuild - $300 labor + parts
-Instructions for removal and install will follow
-Weight of stack and packing is 37lbs
-Shipping with FedEx is about $20 each way

3. Want to convert to a side shift? PM me.

SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS:

Through my many rebuilds I and my customers have found the best and least expensive ways to send your trannies to me.

For a gear stack only this works best:
1) Get a plastic water bottle or cup and cut it so it just covers the speedo drive gear. This will keep it from being damages during tranzit like a helmet.
2) Fold some cardboard up and tape it to the end of the drive shaft to give the point some more suface area. This will keep the drive shaft from poking out of the box during shipping.
3) Get some small trash bags and fill them with news paper balls. These bags are them used to cushion the stack by placing them into the box around it. This will also keep the box from collapsing during shipping, and it cheap!
4) Choose the box with the tightest fit to keep your shipping charges down. FedEx has consistantly been the cheapest, most reliable and safest carrier that I have used for shipping large items.

For shipping me the whole tranny:
1) Clean off the case. It doesnt have to be clean enough to eat off of, but the cleaner you get it the easier it is to ship and the cleaner it will be when you get it back (because I do not clean them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).
2) Go to Staples, UHaul, or any other store with packaging materials and get some packaging wrap (the stuff that looks like a big roll of saran plastic wrap).
3) Take your fairly clean tranny and wrap it up with the plastic. Take it to the nearest Grey Hound freight depot ( http://www.shipgreyhound.com/locations/locations.asp ) and ship it to me. Shipping is about $80 coast to coast.

Thats all! any questions feel free to PM me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif)

Here is a link to an excellent thread by DNHunt on how to rebuild the tranny should you wish to try it yourself. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=40904&st=0
Hello<
I am new to the 914 thing but enjoying it more each day.... I have a 1972 with a 1.7 eng. ( I think ) the shift linkaege is a little sloppy and as I look at the connection in the rear of trany where the long shift od connect i see the previous owner has anout 4 or 5 heavy duty wire ties all attached in a circle and I presume it is replacing a bushing or something that is gone ?? heck it works but i want to know what is missing and how hard it is to replace it if it is a bushing?? any help would be appreciated.
