Actually very robust trannys, usually lasting in the 200k to 300K range. Some things that break in tranny are actually not that difficult to replace. It is always good to change tranny fluid on a "new to you" MB such as these. Many folks swear by adding TransX (additive), and that made a noticable difference on my '80 wagon.
You can, and should, spend days with the search feature. Great info, and it is a really interesting read.
