I have a used h55F that came out of my BJ74. 550,000kms. Shifts fine, doesn’t pop out of gear or make noises. This is the longer 21 spline B input shaft.
Now; full disclosure I’ve owned and daily driven this rig for almost 5 years. I’ve fought a leaking input shaft almost the whole time. I’ve pulled that tranny 5 times?? New seals would fix sometimes for a year, sometimes 6 months and sometimes 1 month. OEM seals held up best. I tried multiple brands of seals. Not a huge drip and only when driving. It bothered me
That said it Probabaly needs rebuilt as there is probably enough play in bearings to overcome the seal. I have no idea if it was ever rebuilt, I have maintenance records back to the early 2000s and no mention of it so I’m saying original.
I was unlucky enough to get rear ended in another vehicle of mine and got a settlement so I was able to buy a rebuilt one that popped up from valley hybrids. I was planning on rebuilding this one but hit the easy button.
Sob story over, no point in me keeping this one so maybe someone here could get it and rebuild it or run as is for awhile with a new seal.
Transmission only, will need reverse sensor and stud for tcase shifter.
Located in northern co, just west of Ft Collins.
$700
