Z_Dust Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Where can I find parts to rebuild a 79zx tranny? The local Nissan dealer wants an arm and a leg for the parts and I am tired of used crapped out trannies (3 so far) and all the swaping and returning that goes with it.

Mike C Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Here are a couple of companies to check out: These guys show everything but the pre-'75 trannies: http://www.drivetrain.com/transmanualrebuildkit.html http://www.kdsperformance.com/manrebkit.html http://www.enginetransandparts.com/manuals.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy 77zt Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 usually when you get a used trans it has a bearing howl from running low on oil.there is a small seal in speedo gear drive that leaks.usually if you repair your own trans and isolate what part is worn nissan parts arent that expensive.but if you open a trans up and its missing teeth on the countershaft cluster its toast.somtimes i take 2 trans and make 1 with some new bearings and seals.

fl327 Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 randy, is this seal replaceable? im leaking out the speedo gear i think, i leak enough trans fluid to worry about it and im sure its not the fill or drain holes, im also missing the lock thing too, ill get them all this friday at pnp, but i would like to replace that seal with a fresh one.
