turboman38 Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Anyone ever rebuild there LGT 5spd tranny? I have a chance to buy a 5spd tranny from an 07 LGT. The car was hit hard to the point that the tranny case is cracked where it meets the engine block. I don't know if the internals of the tranny are ok. My tranny currently has a bearing noise and the dealership has replaced the bearing and a couple of gears in the tailshaft of the tranny under warranty that made the problem/sound go away the first time. I was thinking of swaping the internals from the tranny in the wrecked car to the tranny currently in my car. Any opinions or ideas are welcome.
Max Capacity Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Will...I'm getting ready for my 4th rebuild of my 5 speed. As far as that tranny. If the car got hit hard enough to crack the case, what kind of force did the axle see when it hit the diff? If you can got for cheap it may have some usable parts. If not, it's your money... 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here
