While the trans is out clutch, throw out, input shaft and bearing, rear motor mounts also, much easier to do when the trans is out, unless any of it was just done, it's just parts, and depending on how bad its leaking, you may HAVE to do it.
Front crank seal and possibly back.

That being said, would you trust TA to use new bolts when they tighten a U-joint strap? Because they're going to be pulling down drivelines to get to your rear main seal, and that's just the tip of the iceberg on what they'll need to mess with. What happens when they drain your tranny to remove the cooler lines, but forget to fill it with fluid? Maybe they'll warranty it, but what about the downtime, being stranded, and tow truck, and all the headache? This is the territory of "serious" mechanic work.shooter19802003, Dino soar, Brettj3876 and 5 others Thank this. -

Someone quoted me 4k as the tranny is a killer. Not sure if he included clutch and all other parts but that’s what he said. I walked away.
interesting a rear main seal on a car is about $1200 but semis is 3 times the amount. Why?feldsforever and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
