    You can get a fully rebuilt one from www.mantransllc.com for about 400-450 bucks. Thats where I got both of mine.

    Check local U pulls or Pull A Parts. Around here they are ALOT cheaper than normal yards

    theres not alot you can do to tell if its good or not. You can try and turn it by hand but that doesnt mean all the gears are good. Best advice is to make sure you buy one from a yard that has atleast a 30 day warranty

    Junkyuard by me charges $50 for a tranny... $75 if they pull it out for you. If it's worth a trip to Danville, IL come and get one. Their info is:
    Coultas Recycling
    123 N. 2nd Danville, IL
    (800) 637-1182
    (217) 443-0510

    If you want to make your trip a little shorter, you could pay me in advance ($75, I am not pulling it for you) and pick one up in Urbana, IL or I could even drive part way if you make it worth my time.

    I have a spare. The syncros aren't perfect, but it works ok.
