Lots of trucks up here, unfortunately most are 4WD.

Jas, I used to deal with the wrecking yards daily and still know some of the lads. PM me what the application of the TBay trans is and let me beat the bushes down here, before you take a 8 hr drive- one way.  :cheers:

89-95 trucks/vans & Dakotas with 5.2 or 5.9...

What's the going rate these days?
I paid $175 for mine at a U-pull place 5 yrs ago.

I just paid $100 a piece, bought them as cores since there's zero chance I would bolt them in without going through them...

My pleasure Jason. Just let me know what model, year and engine the one in Thunder Bay was going to come out of so that I can try to compare apples to apples.  :cheers:

@jimynick - Ian, the one up north was our of a 1995 Truck, at least that's what the guy said.

Any 46RH out of an 89-95 truck, vans or a Dakota with 5.2 or 5.9. will suffice.

@Cudajason, I'm in Thunder bay if you need me to do anything.
Just ask. I can phone around if you like but I figured I was too far away.

Thanks for the offer man! 

I just saw an A500 / 42RH within a 2 hour drive!!!  $200 Waiting on some pics and trying to work out some time to pick it up!!!! 

Sounds like the 500 will work from some of the posts here.

Fingers crossed it will work out!!!

 I'd take your time and get a 518, the lockup is worth it.

Did you try here? They always seem to have what I'm looking for?

If they do I can pick it up and store it for awhile if need be?

Katfish, what makes you think the 500 isn't a lock-up?  Most of them are....

Katfish

Sorry, my mistake, thought the 500 was only non-lockup

So to double check.... what we need is a  89-95 trucks/vans & Dakotas with 5.2 or 5.9
You would think it would be not that hard to find?
