You need to give more details, is it a five speed? What year car? Please update this with more information and make it easier to understand or I will delete it. Tick tick tick tick............

For a tranny rebuild - someone mentioned Shep does a good job. I think it was Jet. I vaguely remember it was 895$ for a full rebuild with double synchros in second and cost of gears extra.

Re: Help with tranny
 

I can help with this sorta.

its a 91 AWD 5 speed, he wants something cheap. I told him to get ahold of shindley. he wants a basic rebuild for cheap in a short amount of time. not something for shep to do.

so did I get it right? was it shep who does the best job?

Re: Help with tranny
 

What exactly went out? Does it not go into a gear? Does it pop out of a gear? Did the slave or master go out? Details.

Re: Help with tranny
 

his 2nd gear has been grinding really bad.

he said he heard a pop pop pop and saw shit coming out like metal shit behind his car.

Well is his bellhousing cracked?

Re: Help with tranny
 

I really dont kno, i goes in gear but when u start to give it gas and go it starts to make noise and jerk alot so... i dont kno really

Re: Help with tranny
 

Based on the last post before me it sounds like you sheared off several teeth on either the intermediate or output shaft, possibly both. I've went through 4 FWD trannies. Sounds like yours is AWD but it can happen to those too.

When the car is in neutral, is it very hard to move? On one of my breaks, in neutral i could push the car backward but not forward whatsoever.

If you saw metal stuff flying, then your case is cracked. Sounds like you need a new tranny. If you're mechanically inclined, changing a tranny isn't the worst job(although i hate it everytime).

Re: Help with tranny
 

Yeah shit was fallin out of the back of my car. It can roll fine its when i try to go it alomost jumps as it moves neutral works fine

Re: Help with tranny
 

Need a new tranny. If stuff came out the casing, the casing may not be repairable.

Re: Help with tranny
 

If shit flew out of the case, it's basically NOT repairable period. Nor would it be worth it in anyones lifetime. I "sold" a tranny that works but needs a 2nd gear for 75 with Tase, and I will be selling another in similar condition but its 2nd gear synch that is bad for 100 with Tcase.

Shindley seems to be hit or miss. At least you know what your buying when you go with shep.

Re: Help with tranny
 

shindley isnt hit or miss man....

have you gotten anything done by him?


-Colin

Re: Help with tranny
 

Nope and I will never even try it. Why have him build an engine? I have mike or other ppl for that. Why have him build me a tranny when Shep is a for sure thing?

Notice the word "seems" to be hit or miss.

Re: Help with tranny
 

ok so i have a spare tranny that i bought from colin, he said that he think it only needs a 4th gear fork but i cant tell so if some can help me figure it out that would help alot and if u guys kno nebody that can help the trannies for me please tell me
Thanks ross

Re: Help with tranny
 

its a 3rd gear shift fork.

just ask for shindley man, you dont have time for TRE or Shep.


-Colin

Re: Help with tranny
 

Yes, and he is hit or miss.

Re: Help with tranny
 

Uhh....Shindley is retired guys, he told us this at the cookout.

Re: Help with tranny
 

I dont need a tranny i need the one i have to be fixed and swapped with the one in the car, and is shindley for sure done with cars?

Re: Help with tranny
 

Shindley, as of a month ago or so, told me that he has a full time job now, but he said he was still working on things on and off, kinda unoffical, as if he didnt want it to be known to everybody. I'm sure that he would turn down a transmission pull-fix-reinstall job, but if you bring him just a tranny to work on, he may be able to help you out.

He installed a clutch, and then fixed my timing belt/oil pump pully/waterpump and saved me alot of money. But after I heard what happened between him and JET I have strayed away sice.

I highly suggest doing things right the first time, because I have pulled trannies and if you are like me, you wont want to do it again, so again, try to get it done right the first time.

Shindley fixes trannies, Shep builds them...thats kinda what I was getting at

but what the heck, you may as well call him, the worst he can say is "no" 763-263-2713

Re: Help with tranny
 

i like shindley

Re: Help with tranny
 

he talks alot, but he seems like a nice guy.

-Colin

Re: Help with tranny
 

unreal on here can rebuild them. I am not sure how busy he is though.

Re: Help with tranny
 

I give up im just gonna send the tranny to shep, but if neone can help with the swap that would be cool

Re: Help with tranny
 

if you still want help, i would be willing, I have a shop with a lift we can do it in, i cant do it for free, but it doesnt take much to make it worth my while
