Wow man that sucks. I'm surprised your car actually got onto that trailer.

So how well did it go on the truck? doesnt look like you have much room. you have more than i do looks like.
For some reason this thread reminds me of a thread I read along time ago on the redline motorsports board about ian laceys car breaking and getting flatbedded........
Enough reminiscing, that blows man.
thats how i came back from the 02 bash
water pump though, not tranny. good luck fixing it. the tranny on my DD is out now too. ahh...problems never stop, do they?
Check out my CARDOMAIN page
yeah I have had to put my fully kitted sunfire on before. The tow guys are pretty good with it....well most!
That sucks...Sorry to hear about that..
yea my tranny went out....but i limped it to the shop.....and tranny number 2 is going out on me as we speak
....damn isuzu pos
you scratch my ride IMA EAT YO CHILDREN
I could kick myself right now, shop said they'd have to tear it apart to find out whats wrong, for a total of $281 bucks, I said go ahead as I dont really have the time to swap a transmission and the car is my daily driver. They called me back today, $1980 to fix it! There is no way in hell I'm going to give them what the damn car is worth to fix just the transmission. Found a transmission for 1/16 of what they want to fix it for, now I have to find some way to get it home so I can try and find time to fix it in my driveway in the nice cold winter.....

lol, you can see in the first pic it was a tri-level 2x4 setup, exhaust scraped the ground though.....
I was hopin you had a 5 spd rob i got a spare isuzu in my garage I woulda sold ya cheap haha
good luck gettin er fixed though!
He woulda had a Getrag anyhow, but having a spare Isuzu sounds tempting to me!
Got the car home, had to fork over the $281 to the shop for tearing the trans down even though they were trying to rape me on fixing it. Cost me $86 bucks to rent a flatbed trailer to tow it home, rented the trailer at 4:00 for an hour for $25, and it was 5:02 when we got done, so they were closed, so I had to have the thing overnight. Went to Schrams Auto Parts yesterday, to purchase a $250 trans with 19K on it. I ask about the trans and he says he doesn't see one for $250, another guy overheard us and said that it was this other salesman's quote. So I tell the guy I was looking for the trans and he asked what year my car was, and couldn't find the trans for $250 for an 01, I said I think it was out of a 00, he said that in his computer the trans codes are different, and 01 is seperate from 96-00 and that particular trans wouldn't work with my car? I thought all 2.4 4t4oe trans would work? Anyways the guy looked and had a 01 trans, I looked on the computer and it said $450 for it, he's like I can sell you an 01 trans for the same $250 price, so I asked how many miles were on it, he says 5K. So in the end I got a trans with less miles for the same price. Steve (ACav2Envy) let me borrow his engine hoist to support the engine, operantly I need to support it to swap the trans, thanks Steve! I should be starting the swap tomorrow, part of the work is done because the old trans is already out....
yeah it helps a lot...plus that trans probably isn't light. good luck man!
hmm i had to swap isuzu tranny 5spd once on my old sunfire and wow what a pita good luck bro and keep us updated!
