Re: no 1st or 2nd it would grind 70% of time into 2nd Posted by CMyles [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: no 1st or 2nd it would grind 70% of time into 2nd, Todd ![]() |
Todd, At $1700 for a used, early ('85) transaxle I would suggest that you get the current price on a rebuilt unit from Eriksson Industries or a price on rebuilding the unit that you have now. Keep in mind that you can put a C900 five speed in a cardboard box and send it via UPS for a nominal amount. That '85 unit will not have a shift centering spring in it so you'll have to replace your shift lever mechanism with pre '88 parts in order to make it center in neutral properly. I'll bet that you can get a good Saab independant shop to rebuild your '93 unit for less than $1700 and probably charge less for the R&R labor than a dealer. Good luck.
