Trans fixed !
 

I pulled and bought a trans and torque converter from a 84 300D at a you-pull-it parts for $75.00. It went into my 83 300SD.

I finished the install today....and it WORKS! far better than the old one ever did. About 1 1/2 seconds to engage either forward or reverse. Good shifts!

I am sooooo happy and relieved!

does it have any "kick" or is smooth as ice cream?

Whre did you get the tranny from?

thanks

I live just south of Yosemite in Ca. I drove out to a junk yard in Fresno.

It shifts softer when not into the pedal and firm when taking it up in RPM. It may need some adjusting, but I need to get some miles on it first.
