Figure somewhere around $3500 for a rebuilt 722.6 + labor.
How hard is it to swap yourself? We'd be willing to do that, it'd be a project car. I found a rebuilt unit online for $2695 with 1 year warranty, fully tested and includes new torque converter.


The guy doesn't sound like he's exactly car savvy...

What would you say a very nice condition '98 C230 with dead trans (160k on it) is worth? What should I offer him? He was asking $2500 or best offer....thats way too high.

Its only 3.5 miles from our house, so we could drag it home with one of the SD's easily.
