Default Cant accelerate, Need trans, help

Well i was driving my car the other day and it was having trouble shifting. Now its hard to get it over 30 lol. With the current work situation i need to fix it cheap to get me through the summer so at least i can drive it.

So I need a stock trans or somewhere that rebuilds stock for a decent price If anyone can help shoot me a pm.

thanks in advance

Are you sure the trans is shot?? Did you try to check/change fluid/filter?

Call FLT and tell them your problem. I think if you can pull the trans yourself they can do a rebuild on it for under a grand

I just did the tranny fluid and filter around last week i believe. It was fine for a while then it started to not want to shift unless i let off, then it started to not accelerate after it shifted untill i get the rpms way up so im guessing the clutch packs are about gone...

Ill have to give flt a call ive pulled the trans so many times i can have it out in a jiff lol

yeah man sounds like something is wrong then. Yeah give FLT a call and once you pull it I think they can rebuild it for like 800bucks or something or since your about to spend 800 maybe throw in a few more hundred plus your trans and get a built one. Nothing major but a few steps above stock.
