You'd think a manual 5 speed transmission with one rebuild should last longer than 676,000+ miles. But no, mine let me down. I had to have it towed to a transmission place here in town. They rebuilt it the last time it gave up the ghost at 500,000 miles. We'll see what the verdict is on Monday after they've examined it. I searched around and found I could buy a used one from a junk yard for around $850. It may be cheaper going that way rather than rebuilding the broke one.

500,000?!?! Impressive. Wonder how many miles my 435 has on it? Think it’s from 1980 or so, not sure of where it’s been..it’s in a 75 dodge 1 ton now.

If the one from the junk yard is a factory transmission that has not got alot of miles that would be the way to go instead of another rebuild imo

Mr. Paul you're killin me!!!
If you didnt drag around so many beaver in the poor truck all the time it would have lasted longer
Want some cheese to go with that whine? Oh, the whine is from the transmission? My bad........
May I suggest the “Transmission Breaker” cheese to go with the “Skeeter Pee”?

Think they did away with the 5 speed manual in the newer trucks and went with 6 speed so you better treat that truck well.Might be hard to learn to use an extra gear if you have to get new in the next few years.

Wouldn't think a manual would be that much to rebuild, some bearings and syncrose. Unless the case is damaged?

Prayers sent.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

My wife's `99 Rav had 5th gear problems. Had 5th repaired a couple of times. Not too bad a job because everything that needs to be replaced can be done thru a maintenance access cover in the driver's side wheel well, but the repairs didn't last as long as the original parts. The transmission shop folks said they could not get gears that were properly hardened so they wore out sooner. Could be a good reason to go with a low mileage used transmission if you can find one.
