Your tranny doesn't get regeared - your differentials do.

If you could find a junkyard trans, swapping it out isn't an enormous task for a couple of guys. A rebuild will be expensive.

Before you do anything drastic, check your linkage for damage or disconnection.

Check the fluid level.

you get it to low and it wont build enough pressure to engage.

yea.. well a friend will be doing most of the work on the trans.. by the looks of things i am getting the 4.88's and yea i looked into just swapping a tranny from a junk yard one.. but my DAD finds it easier just to pay for someone to re-do the tranny.. and i wont be paying it all so its fine with me.. plus our friends work on the tranny will be guaranteed
