Hi Fellas,
On the weekend I was unfortunate enough to have my transmission lock up while cruising down the road at 80km/h (not sure how/why, it was almost like it fell out of 5th gear and dropped somewhere inbetween 4th and 5th). The attached photo shows the result, I sheered all 3 studs off the rear output shaft of the transmission.
Is there anyone in the melbourne area that has a good rep for rebuilding these boxes? For the guys who have blown transmissions in the past, did you go for a rebuild or trade it in for a recondition one?
Thanks all for the input!
