replace other parts when replacing tranny?

Hi Everyone, We're having the automatic transmission replaced in our 85 4WD wagon in the new year. Would you recommend replacing anything else while we're having this done? I'm not doing the work as I know very little about mechanics (though I am learning), but if there is anything you'd recommend r...

Re: Looking for a transmission

Thanks for checking. I couldn't afford the cost of doing a full conversion as we will have to pay a mechanic to do the work. I found a couple on car-parts.com for around $250 and we'll be driving pass 3 of the locations over the holidays so we'll pick one of those ups.

Thanks again!


Chris

Looking for a transmission

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for an automatic transmission for our 85 4WD wagon. Let me know if you have one lying around or if you might have seen one in a junkyard.

Thanks!

Re: odd question...maybe transmission

Thanks so much for the generous offer. How much would it cost (your cost/part cost) to do that? I'll talk to my wife once we get an idea on price, but I think that would be a great option for us.

Again, thank you for your kindness.

We live up in Couer d'Alene, ID, but if we do end up needing a transmission we might have to make a trip out t...

odd question...maybe transmission

Hi, My wife and I just bought an 85 4WD Wagon w/ an automatic transmission. The car is in amazing condition w/ only 210,00 miles on it. Not a spec of rust and the engine is great. Here's the problem. After you drive the car for 20-30 min and you accelerate (especially on a hill) the RPMs go up, but ...
