Cost wise it wasn't too bad, I got lots of spare parts. Now I got a lot of tore up busted spare parts.
The tranny will be the most expensive deal, I have some spare cases and most of the part to put one together but I'm gonna do a few upgrades while i'm in there. New updated main, Latest greatest 5th nut, iron extension, new synchros and bearings, yeah it'll be a brand new tranny when I'm done, gonna reseal the t case and do a rear main.
The tranny I tore up doesnt owe me a thing. All I've done to it is change the oil and abuse the sthi out of it for dang near 200,000 miles, this week was the 1st time I've ever opened it up other than pulling pto covers to inspect . Hell it still had the original nut in it. The internals actually look awesome inside it even though I haven't been using the liquid gold the factory calls for. Been using Lucas 75/90 full synthetic.
