Transmission Gone Bye Bye

[WiSDoM]

I had my tranny replaced two weeks ago with a tranny and transfer case from a 2000 isuzu trooper w/tod. their questions on the transfer case matching up but so far everything is great. go luck on your search. I used http://car-part.com/ to find mine. I paid 600.00 total with shipping 375.00 for tranny - 225.00 for shipping.

Very good price from what I've been able to gleen, even from your site....

I'm not so concerned with being age consious (98-2001) as I am with mileage and I think the Troopers had a "on off" switch on the TOD on there 4wd and ours are automatic full time 4wd. That may have been different on the 2000 Trooper set up you put in. I know this has something to do with those fricken "speed sensors". IMO

Nevertheless, it seems the 98-2000 trooper with TOD is the same creature as our transmission. But, I'm just not sure yet about the little "on off switch" with the trooper trans and if that little difference creates an electrical nighmare and/or is not compatable with our TCU (transmission control unit). Anybody out there know???

I was having multiple issues with "tight corner braking" and trouble codes involving the speed sensors and have been dealing with this in previous posts for about 3 months now...All,these things are just plain and simply related to "old age". And resigned myself to a "when it stops moving"?? Guess it needs to be fixed mentality...

So that has happened...Now it seems that these outfits market the transmission, torque converter and T/Case as a package unit...So I can now visualize these multiple issues, I have been dealing with..... going away in a "push-pull-click-click fashion".

Or....so it says here in small print.....

So now my friends/members of this great website...I humbly ask for the sage advice of the geniusicles and guru's, who keep these cars on the road.... so I know what to put into my shopping cart .

Thanks in advance...

yeah i had the same question too. i asked the local isuzu dealership tech and he said it will be fine. I don't have any problem with the TOD, but you can call merlin he should be able to cross reference the part numbers. yeah it was great price. i figured even if the transfer case doesn't work i will sell it on ebay heehehe and maybe see if i can sell my tranny as a core.

[WiSDoM]

you can just buy the tranny and use your transfer case

[rocket man]

No!! I want one like yours!!!! WISDOM

Trans and transfer cse. I think it'll be an easier install this way, anyway I was getting a blinking check lite on the TOD for months now. And kinda figured a different transfer case has different speed sensors...course the possibility exists that I could just exchange problems with some other guy with this method...but Ill take that chance.

Found one for $625+ $200 shipping..nothing like your deal, but I don't mind so much this price as I do the 89K on the drive train....I'll keep up the search...but so far thats the best I could scrounge
