Thanks man i appreciate that..

 

Hopefully it helps, apparently its the "#1 cause of losing 3rd and 4th" so to speak.

 

The loss of the 3-4 clutches is the most common problem with these units. If the transmission has low miles, you could possibly just replace the 3-4 clutch pack, if not the transmission will need to be gone through. If you want to save the most money, and you are mechanically inclined, you could build the transmission yourself. I have very complete kits for these, build books and DVD for the 700R4.

 

Yeah i heard that from the mechanics shop in town... but he wants 1000-1500 for the job... i JUST CAN'T AFFORD IT!!! I am pretty mechanically inclined i have worked in a few mechanics shops... how much would a kit be???
