Marlins prices aren't that bad compared to what a friend paid years ago for a benchtop rebuild. You will also have to factor in double shipping costs, or core charge when considering a local rebuild or one of his.

To check the tranny w/o having to deal w/road/drivetrain noise,start up the engine and pt the t-case in neutral, you can then shift through the gears and listen to the tranny.



More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.
