    WTB: transmission

    lets se, my girls got an 89 lx, its an automatic. she took it to the shop today and the said that it would be 1500 for a rebuild. So, should it cost that much?
    and also, where can i get one? auto or manual it doesnt matter. But the car itself isnt even worth that much. its got about 175,000 miles on it.
    thanks,
    mike

    It takes me about 2 1/2 hours to swap out an auto..but you'll prolly be charge 4-5 hours in a shop.

    I'll weigh the tranny this afternoon.

    it would be of gret help to me if you could detail the three biggest mistakes possible when doing the tranny swap..I'm not sure if pulling the entire unit then splitting ( sure would make teh timing belt easy to change at the same time, or messing with just the tranny would be better. I have a crane. Advice appreciated.
