So, I might have an opportunity with one of these. Guy took it to the dealer for a transmission leak. Shifts a little hard into 1st. Dealer wrote the guy a huge list of issues and a huge quote to fix it. They told him they'd give him $800 for it. I dont know **** about this transmission. Read some about it seems to have some shifting issues. It's got the 4.0l in it with 140k in it. Does anyone have any thoughts if it'd be worth it to fix ir replace the trans? It's all stock, hard top, not much for rust. Should I try to buy this thing? I'm gussing he'll want more than $800 for it. I just dont want to buy a headache thats gona cost me $3k to fix.
