I really didn't know how good the tranny was so I chose to have it rebuilt.I ordered a kit from Novaks and made arrangments for an elderly man that was supposed to be the best tranny guy in the midwest to do the rebuild.Well here it is a year and a half latter and it is in peices. The elderly man I think has health problems and said he actually forgot how he had taken it apart. To make a long story short I need someone to assemble it for me. If any of you know of a person willing and able to do it in northern Wi. Please let me know. If you know where I can get diagrams and instructions, please let me know.I'm desparate for some help. Thanks. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,867 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,867 | If you can lay out all the parts and get a picture I can tell you what exactly they are and try and help you get the rebuild done yourself. Its a fairly easy and straight forward rebuild.
PM or email me if your interested.

The shop manuals have pretty good instructions. They are pretty easy as trans. go. You should be able to build it if you get good instuctions.
They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

Question is, if he forgot how he took it apart (sounds like me - now where did I park my truck) perhaps he also forgot where he put the parts. Did he order replacement parts? Someone here will be able to supply you with information needed to rebuild. I rebuilt one on a card table in my bedroom when I was 17 (took me 2 weeks). I sometimes wonder how my mother put up with me...

Send me an address and I will have it going your way. Novaks and others will probably have some parts if something is missing,I have photo's of mine too if that could help with something, good luck. | | |
