My tranny was working fine but had an oil leak so we took it out to fix the leak & generally clean it up really good. We got a surprise when we opened it up & now have a bigger problem, the main shaft seems to be missing a couple of teeth. Damn!!! It's always something. Lol.
Don't buy it, build it!!!
If you are afraid to drive it then what good is it.
Tire smokin' & gear jammin' does a body good.

Yep always. But at least you found the problem close to home and didn't have to be towed or trailered.

Yeah, I guess it could have been worse if it had left me sitting somewhere broke down. Go to just suck it up & fix it and hope that my heavy right foot does not break anything else. Lol.
