Tire Size help!!!
-
Ya I just realized that after I posted. I had the tires put on last winter and drove it all winter since like december/January and went about a month or month and a half of driving on completely dry roads then started slipping and eventually lost overdrive and had to run in 3rd. I just talked to a buddy that works at Fleet Farm and said that I could deffinately get a new tire out of the deal but we need to figure out if the size difference is what caused the tranny to go out for anything else.

that would efinatly suck hope you get everything figured out and taken cre of i personally have no idea about those kind of things

Does anyone know where I can find a rebuild kit for a tranny and what it all consists of?? I went online to napaparts.com and checker and couldn't exactly find a kit. need to know exactly what I would need or get in a kit if anyone possibly have done this before it's a 96 sunfire 2.2 4-speed auto(gay!!)

They will have it. Oh and rebuilding an auto tranny is not for the faint of heart. You had better know your shit if you plan on tackling it yourself. Good luck.

Ideally, it would be benificial to know remove and dissasemble it to see exactly what is damaged to determine whether the tranny is actually worth fixing or not. If the diff has damage, you'll want to get a different tranny as you wont get that from any parts store.

cool thanks man we are gunna tare into it in sept. like I said and see whats all wrong. the last time it went out I had hazers put a used one in and I don't think that he put a new torque convertor in, I have been told you NEED to do that... not to mention the fact it was WAY OVER PRICED but didn't know that at the time and will never deal with them again. In my opinion they are crooked as hell.

oh ya and the tranny is out of the car already

You could also check salvage yards for recently wrecked sunfires, I know there out there, and maybe pick up the whole tranny or even try a 5 speed swap, who knows.
Just something I thought I'd throw out there.Sterling Archer: Oh my god! You killed a hooker!
Cyril Figgis: Call girl!
Sterling Archer: No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!

I wanted to do a 5-speed swap because I hate automatics but I heard it's not worth it. Easier and cheaper to sell this and buy a 5-speed but then again once I sell this i'm not going back to a sunfire or cavi for that matter
