My '73 Challenger 727 has gone out for the 3rd time. First rebuild was done by a guy who forgot to flush the cooler and lines. Lasted 1K miles.
Bought a re-built "super duty" from a trans house in Chicago. Ran great for 5K miles (10 years) and now the 1st/revers band is broken (adjuster is just hanging).
The local trans shop guy (with a neato 70 Chall dragster out front) wants $500 for a rebuild. I have saved up the dough and the car is on stands waiting for me to crawl under...
I saw Litemup's thread but have decided that it will just piss off the repair shop guy if I brought in a box of parts. He'll probably charge $700...
I need some advice on what to ask about and for, when getting this job done. I don't want to do this job again. It was fun when I was in my 30's, but not now...(50).
ny help would be most appreciated!
Doug (same car since '77)...
