Don't risk it. Metric Motors is not much more costly..........and the job is guaranteed to be correct...........the first time.
I had a adsit tranny in my 81 300sd when I bought it with a bad tranny!!! Bought in 04 ,tranny was slipping and the working pressure was at about 75 lbs. whhen it should have been at 165lbs. Tranny was installed in 01 with hardly miles put on the car since install!!!! My tranny man went threw it the right way!! He told me that there was some seals that never got replaced that were as hard as a rock!!! and blown!!! And a bad valve body Working sweet now!!! Total cost of tranny with reconditioned valve body was 1070.00
