Another 3053...

There was a few listed in the classifieds. I actually had two or three people come to me with them.

the search function will answer your questions more completely than the response this thread will generate.

besides that Clark Truck Parts in Poca WV. currently has them on sale!

Take outs are fairly easy to find for a reasonable price. Classifieds.

i would think 250.00 or less should find you a good used transmission but bob h is right on in his response .

I heard fifth gear get real loud yesterday. I thought it was low on oil so i checked it. it was fine. I drove it to work this morning on the way it poped real loud them jumped out of gear. I put it back in gear then kept driving. got to work drained the oil and found a tooth off a gear and lots of metal. I filled it back up drove it home, fifth gear was screamin got home now I cant put it in third or second first is fine and forth is to.

is this something that can be fixed or would it be more cost effective to replace with a take out? Im trying to hurry and do something as it is sort of a daily driver.

With how cheap transmissions are, and your time crunch, it's way easier to replace. There's a transmission in the classifieds, and I know you'd get a lot of responses to a WTB thread in the classifieds.

Good luck getting one. When you swap, I had to change mine out and wrote it up in this thread, maybe it will help...

Just as a update I got my transmission in today and I am loving being able to drive my truck around again. I had rough time with it but I got it in there. I had to get some stitches in my hand a couple of weeks ago because of a mishap at work but I had the out by last monday. well this past Sunday I was working on putting the trans in, and one of the bolts that holds the lifting brackets in came out will it was in the air and the chain came loose and caught my hand and pulled it up into the come along I was using. It didnt hurt me too bad just tore open my cut again. But I got It in today and drove it about twenty miles and I love it! Thanks to everyone who helped In getting the transmission to me.
