Transaxle / Transmission Shops?
Can anyone recommend a shop to rebuild a manual transaxle? The closer to Powhatan the better.
Please and Thank You.

Jewish Dodge Brothers? I see the star of David, haha...
Whats wrong did you blow your tranny or snap a axle? Pretty much any place you go you are going to get assraped. I always get my flywheels resurfased at Jims, not sure if he does manual trannys but I bet he could recommend someone good though, give them a call EXTREMLY nice people to work w/.

Re: Transaxle / Transmission Shops?
The use of the Star of David in the Dodge Brothers logo goes back to 1914 and the first Dodge Brothers car built. It was last used on the 1938 Dodge.
At the time the emblem was selected (most likely 1912-1914) it's likely that the Dodge brothers were unaware of its use in Judiasm. In fact, at this time, that symbol was not used universally in this context.
They are two interlocking Greek letter "deltas" or "Ds" for the two Dodge brothers.
Now, with the history lesson out of the way.
I don't think the tranny is blown, I think it is a bent shift fork. I can shift through and select gears, but if you let off the clutch while in neutral you
can hear a whirring noise like a spun throw-out bearing but the car is trying to go in gear and stall out. So i don't know, maybe shift fork or maybe something more.

Re: Transaxle / Transmission Shops?
Thats cool. I dont know about the bent shift fork, majority of the time the shift fork will break before it would bend; thats what ive been told by every transmission shop because I am the king of blowing T-5's (If anyone needs a T-5 Blown bring it to me ; I hate fucking T-5's). But every car is different, prolly is your synchronizers though. Did you give them a call?
Jen, If I hade a shop with a lift or a pit, I could fix it. also if I wasn't so lazy
