Good luck rebuilding a ZF Ron   Michael Noe (Noee) Senior Member Username: Noee Post Number: 474 Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Monday, March 10, 2003 - 06:17 am:    Depending on your local resources, getting a new (used) one, might be only marginally more expensive and heaps easier IMO. I just replaced my AT (ZF) and tcase this weekend (local mechanic let me help out). You could still get your AT rebuilt and sell it to recoup some cash, that's what I plan on doing.   Bill Bettridge (Billb) Senior Member Username: Billb Post Number: 688 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Monday, March 10, 2003 - 09:18 am:    Send it to ericcson industries for rebuild. That is what they do - rebuild ZF's. Check their website, but last time I checked (awhile ago) it would have been about $1200 - of course you have to factor in freight also.
