RE: [diesel_mercedes] Manual Transmission

 

Eh, I dunno.  These things are pretty indestructible.  40K, 140K, probably worth about the same.

They don't come up in the salvage yards around here very often anymore, but, the last one I bought was about $80, flywheel to driveline, inclusive.  That was like, five years ago.  Didn't include the pedals.

I'd ask $250, take no less than $150.

Also the total driveline length is about 2.5 inches shorter. So the drivelines are going to be needed too. The shifter and all the associated central console parts are needed as well. BTW, a 4 speed manny with only 40K on it should be worth a fortune.

Mark -
Thank you so much for your reply - that's good news.  I have a 'friend of a friend' who wants to buy my tranny & do the conversion.  Any idea of what the transmission should be worth?  It was removed from a car with just over 40k miles (the motor was used for a heart transplant) & has been sitting in a dry garage for almost 10 yrs - the dreams of converting my car to manual slipped away when we had our 2nd child three years ago...
