It will probably be cheaper to just replace the transmission. You can pick a used MN6 up for about 700 plus shipping, sometimes more, sometimes less. I have one if you're interested. Good Luck!! Dan

Since I have a MN6, I have to ask, how did this loss of 5,6, & R happen?

Unless you do the work yourself your trans is basically just a core.

Budget $2,000 for an RPM trans and call it good.
