Default Selling 6-speed trans for 200, 5sp for 100, 4.1dif 100.

Hey guys, I need to get these parts out of my garage.

The 6sp has a twisted output shaft. It seems to go through the gears just fine, but I can't confirm that it's 100% good. The seller that I bought it from here ensured me it was a good, working transmission when he pulled it. I'm inclined to believe that he was telling the truth, and honestly didn't know that the output shaft was twisted.

The 5sp came out of my car. I changed the fluid at 120k when I bought it, and it was fairly clean with no metal or anything else in it. It was behind my supercharged motor @6psi for about 2500 miles before I pulled it. When I bought it, it grinded from 2-3 if you shifted extremely fast, however, after I changed the fluid with the motorcraft stuff, it went away in about ~50mi and never came back. It's going to need a turret rebuild.

The 4.1 rear end is an open diff, and is in good condition, again, I changed the fluid when I bought it at 120k miles, fluid was dark, but not black and no metal shavings were in it. When I drained it at 145k it came out clean with no metal.

I'm not going to ship, so pickup only. They are all located in Apple Valley, California, 92307.

Can you explain what you mean by "twisted output shaft"?

I've seen twisted driveshafts, I can't imagine that the output shaft somehow received so much torque that it twisted before the gear teeth shattered,

I have a thread on it. AFAIK it's the only recorded case of it ever happening.
