just curious to see what u guys think....

a 6spd tranny with a bad differencial bearing.. it has about 99k on it and its from a 2003 maxima. no hlsd. someone locally wants to buy it off of me...keeps asking for a price...
i know the 6spds in good condition go for good money..
what should be the going price be for the one i have...

and please keep the dumbazz comments to yourself.. thanks.

 

300 bux? used ones in working condition on car-part have a huge range, i think most people who get used ones pay 700-900 bux

 

Coincidentally, there's someone in the classifieds selling a used MT right now:

I'm no expert on used part prices, but it seems to me for the money he's asking you could almost get a brand new '04 MT w/HLSD. Or an entire truck. (See, now there's one of those dumazz comments you warned about.)

Try calling a few tranny shops and get a quotes on a rebuilt 2002-2003 MT, then adjust accordingly. I'm inclined to agree with Hotshot on the $300 range.

 

something i would look into especially if u didnt have a HLSD would be the SpecV tranny. internals are excatly the same apparently the only difference is the VQ35 bellhousing/clutch plate. And all SpecVs come with HLSD. Just throwing it out there because most of the SpecV trannies i see are going for like $400, so they are not that expensive.


Just 02-03 have a 4.4 finally drive so gears are extremely short. And the 04-06 have the same 4.1 as the 6th gen.

 

i just checked courtesys website, its 1834 for a new one with the lsd . you would be nuts to pay what he wants...even if he could verify the mileage..

 

thanks....

 

and crusher103..

hmmmmmm....interesting....i'll look into it. thanks bro..

 

lol 1150 for open diff with 83k, I bought one with lower mileage in 05 or 06 for 600...

I would say 250-300 for the bad bearing tranny

 

ya it's about 1800 plus shipping for a new one from Dave B.

 

Idk man seeing how much we pay for them up here in ny I figure with a bad bearing you could probably get 5-650 for your box because it is an easy fix, but hey if u wanna sell that box for 300 I would be sure to take it off your hands and build it lol.
