Anyone have any experience with the older Toyota 5 speed transmissions?
I just bought an old 85 4x4 to use on the lease and the guy I got it from says that every now and then the tranny will lock up and it's hell to get it unstuck. He said sometimes it happens when just shifting to a higher gear and sometimes it happens when downshifting.
I bought it cheap so I figured I would gamble on it.
I havent went to pick it up yet so I don't have any info off of the tranny yet.
Just thought someone might know off hand what the problem is.

Dunno, I'd look for a junkyard gear box and just drop the current box out and replace it.
