You'd. better Just break down and buy a Dodge!! Never use Dodge and breakdown in the same sentence it’s bad luck. LOL The last rebuilt trans for my D50 was about a grand this place knows what the are doing and that was with the core. Going to a place that knows autos that might not be able to do a manual justice or know what to charge, just a waste of time and money find a place that knows the ins and outs of manuals. The nice thing about just swapping out a used one is a manual is rather easy to swap out if you have some mechanical skills. Change out the clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing and pilot bearing when you have it apart.

Lee, mine had frame problems too, but I had a fella clean up the frame and strengthened it by welding plates where he cut out the rust. I heard now there are kits that can be welded on to the frame to strengthen them. I heard you can get kits that have the spring shackle hookups included. Had same problem on frame with my 97 tacoma with 227000 weld shop plate it they done a few Toyota for me of the late 90 to 2000 over the years I sure didn't have a frame problem on my 97 T100 they must be built different

Might just be the clutch you kept the receipt I hope? LOL J/K they sell new ones you know but they are beeping, squealing, alarm infested machines that never stop making warning noises.

Your going to get the corona virus roaming around out there! lol Nah, the only person I've been face to face with this past four days has been my wife. I've probably got one of the safest jobs out there as far as this virus goes. Just me and the beavers. We've been designated as essential work personnel, so I get to keep chasing the beavers with all this mess going on.

I heard now there are kits that can be welded on to the frame to strengthen them. I heard you can get kits that have the spring shackle hookups included. One of our dealerships up here has replaced a ton of Toyota truck frames-at no charge to the owners-hard to believe but it is true.at least Toyota fixed the frame issue they knew was a problem-again free of charge.I have owned lots of Toyota trucks-especially the older ones.They sure took a beating when we were younger-amazed us over and over again.Great trucks!
