Well, the last 727 I rebuilt was back around 1990. Someone else is going to rebuild the trans for me. Its $1200 at the local guy, if I carry it in and carry it back out, and he was backed up at least 6 weeks a few months ago. I can get a remanufactured trans from a national chain for $1500, dropped off at my door in about a week, that has a 3 year warranty (the local guy has 1 year). Still not looking forward to pulling this pig out (its a 4x4 truck), sure hope my buddy gets his hoist up and running by the time I need it.
