  • WTB: New Year, Bye Bye Trans...

    So I was moving the Exploder so they could plow the space out. Lets just say I put it in reverse, backed out, shifted into drive and kept backing up. LOL. The damned thing will not shift into any other gear, even park! Oh well New Year, time for a new car right?

    Anybody got something driveable for sale for under $2K?

    Maybe this should be in the Classifieds Section.

            Hmm Sounds familiar,

            On Monday my 96 Tahoe had everything but reverse. Now the Trans is out and needs to be rebuilt. and put back in.

            You give me the reverse I'll send you the other gears LOL

              Ben. . . Did you check the trans fluid like I told you on the phone? Is the shifter still "Clicking" when you shift, or is it sliding loosely? I don't know if that vehicle uses a cable or rod system for the trans, but it could have just become disconnected somehow. . .

              Look into Subaru's, you can get some pretty decent AWD wagons cheap if you look hard enough.

                Well I got the truck to a trans shop. They say it is a shift cable and it'll cost about $300 to fix. I told them to go ahead. But there is another issue now, the parking brake is locked up. I engaged the parking brake when after I backed it into a space and then disengaged it when the tow truck guy showed up. The trans shop guy said he can just cut the parking brake cable and be done with it. Do I really need a parking brake anyway?

                  I really only use my e-brake on my Firebird since it is a Manual trans.

                  I never use the e-brake on my Grand Prix.

                    I only use my e-brake on steep inclines...in my mind it seems like it will be better for the trans but i really dont know if thats true

                    i wouldn't worry about the e-brake and just scrap it
