I hate it when a shop tries to jack you around ,been there done that .Thats why my truck got pulled from one bodyshop and hauled to another .

yeah man it sucks the dude told me i am going to need 1800 in parts so i asked him what do i need and he told me the following
synco
input shaft
tail housing (cracked so he says)
new third gear
steel three four shift fork

that is going to cost me 1800 in parts! so i replied to him look here
third gear

118
input shaft
http://www.thegearbox.org/catalog/it...17/3697124.htm
178
syncs with everything else needed and the steel shift fork
http://www.thegearbox.org/catalog/it...17/7824166.htm
665
that doesnt even come out to 1000 the tail housing is not listed online but i contacted them and they told me 188 shipped
so that comes to
1149 thats everything he told me i needed. and he was the one that old me he gets all of his stuff from the gear box. so i found them online and i called them. i was not happy at all so i rather just give him the little labor he has put into the trans and just get it back and sell it as a core to someone and just get a magnum trans that has the manual gear to use my stock gauge
