Luckily all it did was lose the input shaft. I had a new one installed, and it's as good or better than new (till it does it again!) ...:shakehead:

Only us two goofballs could manage to take out a bullletproof car and destroy it on one rare night it went out. It was scary and hilarious all at the same time. :lol:

well the trans obviously wasnt bulletproof! hahaha I told my dad if there is a gd weak link, Ill find it. I break that car almost everytime I drive it. I broke his "built AOD" 3 times, broke the stock AOD under warranty twice, blew the stock motor up, rebuilt it on my own in a few days, blew it up the very next day after it was tuned... it's just a nightmare of a car. The complete opposite of the 86... that thing WONT break, even when I try to blow it up, it's like what else you got!?:happy107:

thats a decent price, the F4TE is sort of a pos, but if he doesnt plan any power adders itll be fine.

Aod are junk no matter how much money you put in them
