Transmission troubles...
 

The transmission in my 91 has the dreaded 1-2 clash, and it's not so smooth grabbing 3rd either.

Now that it's winter, I'd like to get it taken care of, but I'm not sure what is the best option: New trans, or find someone to rebuild the one I have? Seems like there may be a limited number of folks who are really familiar with the ZF-6?

I've been keeping my eyes open, but have yet to run accross an appealing transmission on the market.

Thoughts?

Only person to call is Bil Boudreau....

New ones are hard to find, but can be bought. Many have bought new and sent them to Bill to be ballanced and blueprinted. I did, WOW...

He can repair your transmission, but it will be pricey.

Here is his # 602-319-6575

Second that, Bill's the man to see if you want it done right the first time.

now would be a great time to send it to bill as he is not very busy right now i was just there . he also has a new detent mod he is doing that makes the tranny shift even smoother . also while its there het one of his short throw shifters . his are way better than any on the market .

Yep, I've been running Bill's shortened stock shifter (with lockout ring retained), and I'm much happier with it compared to the Hurst I had for a while.

I got Bill's shifter too (without the lockout ring) and LOVE IT....

I had the Hurst shifter too and thought it was a great upgrade! Bill's is a HUGE improvement.

Is there an aftermarket swap with a usable 6th gear?

Re: Transmission troubles...
 

4.10s? 4.56's?

Re: Transmission troubles...
 

4.10s does not do it, I was thinking actual trans...not so much rear gears

Check hydraulics first, master/slave.

Lee,i think Kurt has some different ratio gears.
