Boosted Falcon

hi guy i have a '92' eb sxr8 and one of my band in the btr has snapped (2nd to 4th) i got quoted today $600 for the job including removal, band replacement, new clutch and rear seal and then installation once done...just wanted to know if this was a good price and is it worth saving $150 to remove the auto myself (then i'll have to instal it myself or get the car towed) ideas would be helpful..

you wont need a clutch.
take it out your self. but btr's are heavy. so put a t5 in.

If you dont have a hoist I would pay someone the $150 + towing.

Ive done it at home on the garage floor and I wouldnt do it again.

+1 on being to heavy,its worth paying someone else the 150

yer true thanks for the imput champ! i would love a t5 but can't find one and really cbf atm to change the tailshaft but definetly a manual conversion will come into my ride in the next year or so just really o.dn driving the car around with the snapped band lols its worse than limp mode:(

Some dude of Fordmods has a 5L manual conversion for sale at the moment!

I have a reco'd trans here complete if you are keen.
