I searched and could not find anyone recommending a site, but I need a rebuild kit for my AX15 (bearing and syncros)

I have found them everywhere from 155 on ebay to 250+ on other sites. Who has done this and can recommend a good kit?

Around here you can score a good used tranny for about $100 so most people don't bother with the hassle of a rebuild.

Mine is in good shape, just the syncros are shot. Plus I would like to learn how to rebuild one (Im one of those people)

I was in the process of rebuilding mine today until I discovered I needed a new input shaft and cluster gear (adding $240 to the $165 I already paid for the rebuild kit plus days to wait for them to arrive). So instead, I'm gonna pick up a 1 yr warranted rebuilt ax15 this weekend for $650. I'll sell you the unused rebuild kit for $150 shipped, if you're interested.

Try the yellow pages and calling around to the local transmission places and ask where they get their parts. I guarantee they have a local vendor they call and drive over to for parts. I found a local place (TranStar I think?) that did mostly automatics parts but ordered in a bearing/brass kit for $180.

I found an ad on EBay while posting an ad of my own (about a TH400 to D300/NP adapter I was going to use in my MJ with 327 Nash. CHange of plans)

According to the trans part place there are two versions of the rebuild kit. The difference being the 5th gear synchro is different.

Any other suggestions? So far I have found the following.

Ebay

http://tinyurl.com/2zpvh4 $155

http://tinyurl.com/yu28pv $177 money order only.

Other.

www.drivetrain.com Let's say $400 including syncros.... This one makes it hard to justify.



Couple of other places that do parts.

I plan to dissassemble and measure before proceeding but would love to hear from others who have done this. I do not want to throw cheap rebuild parts into the transmission but do not want to overdo it either.

Thanks, Nick
