The transmission fairy dropped this off in my driveway last night. It came from a local junkyard. I hope it's the right one for a '89 560SEL. He said he paid $500 for it and it had a one year guarantee. Since he's paying for the whole deal I figure I can't go wrong. He also found some guy to come put it in, working on my driveway. I hope that's not a bad idea, he says he's going to put down tarps to keep the oil off.
Is it worth keeping the old trans? I figure I can do a rebuild on it over the winter when the motorcycle biz is dead around here. Any weird special tools required to take one apart? Never worked on an automatic trans since motorcycles don't have them (except for a few oddballs).
