Post by Weiner »

Hi guys,

Do you recommend any places to fix the gearbox out of my lux? Just trying to find some places to take it to.

Cheers

try, clutch and gearbox reconditioners on waverley road malvern. its a big yellow place just near the corner of darling road, where the tram line starts.
cant remember the exact name of the place. but had my clutch done there and was happy with the job done.
plus a mate had his gearbox in his triton done and he was wrapped.

Went down to halls for a giggle, $1200 for a reco gearbox, so I drove round looking for places and found 360 Gearbox's, and he is repairing it for me for a good price :armsup: Thanks guys

best off cutting your kidney out first b4 going to halls. cos an arm and a leg wont cut it with his prices. He is likely to sell you a non reco box first and hope it doesnt fail to make a quick buck.
