I'm in that "other" sunshine state, brother, _Arizona_ -- where the sun can kill you! [But only if you let it.] Shipping from Florida to Arizona is prohibitive fot something that heavy. 300#+?.
Also I have this perverse desire to fix the one that came out of my rig so I don't have to recalibrate the whole speedo-/bullet thing. As much as some of the local Xmsn shops are asking to rebuild 465's lately, it's enough to make me price a gear press and rebuild kits and do it myself. That way I know what's in it. I have this one unit that came out of the pickup truck and the old one I kept from before that in 1990. With a backlog of already -used 465 trannies, I don't need any more. There's even a good one running in my '71 Jimmy. (Rare in K/5s of this vintage). So for future reference and my own edification, it would be worthwhile to invest in some shop tools and bearing & seal kits, so I can still rebuild 465s long after local shops won't remember how to deal with that much old iron.
I do appreciate the offer, however.
