Well the time has come for me, I must rebuild the trans, bad 2/3rd gear grinds and oh yeah! a diff the locks and unlocks whenever it wants even in neutral.
So with the MASTER Guru gone (r.i.p. Mr Haines) Does anyone know of anyone else that comes CLOSE to what he did with the trans??
I'll be honest I was in talks with his shop for rebuilding my trans but he passed away before I had the chance to get it done.. I was set on having HMS do it but now I can't obviously..
I want it rebuild the CORRECT way the FIRST time... I have the money, that doesn't bother me, but most shops I talk too aren't "Familiar" with the MTX-75. that doesn't give me a whole lot of faith the have them install a 700$ diff and rebuild then damn thing... So I am on the hunt for a GOOD shop that imitates what Terry's Shop had done with these trans..
Anyone point me in the right direction??? I am in Pennsylvania if that helps.. I CANNOT do the work myself to remove engine n such.. My kidneys are failing me and I have tubes keeping me alive literally, so I can't be ripping crap apart anymore like I used to
To give an idea, a local shop quoted me about 3,000$ to just install the headers/ypipe/diff.... rebuilding the trans would probably tac on another 1,000$
