Don't forget the exchange rate of $1.59 dollars/ pound. Plus the shipping
rates are extremely high to the US. Is the $970 in lbs or $'s. Look at the
link above John Espisito seems like a good guy. I had him put in seals to my
TR6 Diff and he was reasonable and seemed very knowledgeable.
What if you have a problem w/ the tranny, think about that and the hassles
($) to send it back to England.
This is just my opinion though.

Hi List,
I've been looking around for a rebuilt transmission with an "A" type
overdrvie (my current 71 TR6 is a straight 4-speed). I went to the Rimmer
Bros. web site, the price for a rebuilt tranny with od and conversion kit is
$970.00! Can this be true? Obviously shipping costs and core exchange are
not included in this price, and I have no idea what it would cost to ship a
transmission to and from England, but... in pricing tranny's with OD I've
found that they run at least $1,500.00. That's a significant difference. In
further looking around on the site...A long block engine rebuild is only
$1,448.55. Am I missing something, as this seems incredibly inexpensive. I
can't get a quote for my engine rebuild less than $2,500.00. Does anyone
have any experience dealing with Rimmer Bros. at this level?
Thanks
Joe Davis
