Transmission RPL ?'s

[zipastro]

I found a 94 Landcruiser in my area at a repo yard. 120K miles locked and green just like the one I have only it has a leather interior. The yard says that it has a bad trans, but thats all they know (or think they do) I checked it out today and found that it took longer then norm to shift into gear (f+R) and I could also get it to slip with moderate power braking.

My question is how hard is it to R&R the trans on an 80? What all needs to come out?

maybe a simpel test are play abit with the throtle cable .. adjust your shifting points.

I hope it just needs simple parts or adjustment but I am thinking worst case scenario for $.

I can find a used transmission on car-parts.com (crapshot) for $500-1000

check the fluid level first. I'm R&R my tranny starting tomorrow. It's a 96 so maybe a little different and I'll be changing out some seals while I'm at it but you can get an idea.

Landtank has a current thread with this information.
