i have a dx tranny and i just noticed my third gear started to grind. there is a complete ex engine/transmission at a local junk for 150 bux. but the tranny has a hole on top of it where the mount goes. it dosent appear to have any damage internally, so my question is can i use my transmission case and put in the ex internals ?? or is too much of a hassle ? i can get a working ex transmission for 300 bux from the same guy.

 

it can be done, but your looking at 3-5 hours of labor......it is not a simple swap.

Also with the hole in the top, how much rust/water damage?

a EX tranny for $300 unrefreshed had better come with a blow job and a reach around.........

 

Both options arent worth it, keep looking

maybe look into synchromesh, worked great on my truck that ground like a ----------er

 

there is some rust on the inside of the transmission, not sure about water.
do you have anything for sale, wanna trade ??
LMK thanks.

 

nothing EX or DX for sale, unless you wanna buy my KAAZ close ratio tranny.

I'd part with is for $1200 shipped in the US. The KAAZ has 40k miles on it, clutch packs may need servicing soon.

 

lol dont have that kind of money to spend, but thanks.
