found it on craiglist bought it for 100 bucks only has 84k miles
owner said it was knocking but still drivable i just needed it for the valve body
instead of paying 300 to 400 for a valve body bought a whole transmission for 100 bucks and it cost me a another 100 bucks to ship it from peachtree georgia to ky delivered to my door

 

is it hard to take out the a drum??

 

got the transmission in and it looks great on the outside
will tear it apart tomorrow and see what i find
if it had a good a-drum anybody want to buy it

 

took the transmission apart today and the a-drum is good not broken
i am thinking of still sending it to oliver to reinforce it make it stronger
the bad part of the transmission is the rear part that the drive shafts connects to the teeth are grinded out and no good
