In desperate need of a rebuildable fwd trans!

[unrightentity]

So, I lost all fluid on my way to work, and looked underneath to find a gaping hole pounded into the bottom of the transmission engine-side. Scoured craigslist and several sites, but can't find anything. If anyone has any good suggestions, they are extremely welcomed. It's my daily driver, so I'm sort of freaking out at the moment! The crack happens to be right at the seam, so neither side is reusable. I will post a picture later, if necessary. So, where I'm sitting right now, my opinion is, if it's rebuildable, it's better than mine. I'll be scouring junkyards come Monday (my saturday) and will keep you guys posted. I would rather it be already in need of a rebuild for budget purposes! Please, wizards of the site, pull some magic for me!

you would greatly help your cause by indicating what year of car you drive, atx or mtx, and sohc or dohc.

p.s.
unless you've owned a 3/s for a couple years, relying on it for a DD isn't necessarily a good idea. these cars are quite reliable when taken care of--but the majority of used ones are mercilessly beaten up. expect to incur some financial setback in order to bring it up to reliable spec.

Sounds like you ate a diff.

Posting a location would help too. I already have a busted transmission sitting in my Stealth so I need the one sitting on the floor with a busted 2nd gear, but I am sure someone can help you out.

It's a '92 DOHC with a standard 5spd. My location is Phoenix, AZ. It was actually purchased to be a toy, but necessity reared it's ugly head... Besides it, I have an intake to change out on my Rodeo which currently has stripped bolts. So much excitement that I can barely contain myself!:Doh:

I have a good shifting one for $700 out of a 91 SL. Road tested. No grinding or popping out of gear.

How much for shipping to 85051, ball-park? I'm currently waiting on an ecu core refund from you guys, so would that be able to be applied to the cost?

[Hans@GZP]

$90 for shipping and we can definitely apply the core money towards the purchase of the trans.

[unrightentity]

Sweet! Just let me know when you've had a chance to approve the core (my username is the same there) and I'll scrape the funds together. You are a lifesaver!

[unrightentity]

Also, I would have to kick myself if I didn't check to be sure... That will work with my current ECU/engine, correct? I doubt you would sell me something otherwise, but it never hurts to ask.

91-92 5 speeds are interchangeable.

Your core was approved today (got word from our rebuilder over the weekend).
