bushbasher Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 From what I've heard there are three ea81 4x4 trannies, right? 4spd DR, auto SR, and 4(5?)spd SR, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLCraig Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Bassically, there were three. The single range was a 4-speed and it was lever not pushbutton activated. The DR 4-speed had the gearing for 3rd and 4th change for better economy starting in 83. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushbasher Posted August 22, 2003 Author Share Posted August 22, 2003 tommorrow I'm getting hold of a guy with an 83 gl 4x4 wagon, for 500 cdn, apparently has "little rust", and needs a cv (probably 2) I think that if it is as described here, and a dual range I'll go for it, if it is a 4spd SR, and the car is actually pretty good, I might go for a 5spd DR swap. Sound like an OK price to you guys? I'm sure the prices are a bit different on Vanc. Island though (higher) I'm in a hurry to get a sube and fix whatever is wrong with it before summer holidays end, so that I can feel like I actually did something with my summer .

GeneralDisorder Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 It's most likely a D/R since I think all GL models from 83 on up had the D/R. Not a bad price - not cheap tho for a wagon. If it's really beutiful, and low miles, then it might be worth it. Pretty spendy by Northwest standards, but maybe not for where you are. And if it's the single range - forget it.

GLCraig Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 That's not a bad price since $500CAD is about $355USD at the current exchange rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
