Yesterday I noticed a clicking sound coming from my front end under load on accel and deceleration in all gears, increases with load and never goes away. It has fresh Synchromesh MTF, axles, hubs... ECT. Not sure about the clutch.
My best educated guess is the diff has s--t the bed. My options are, find a junkyard trans, throw an LSD and rebuild kit at it or get full coverage insurance and light it on fire behind a dumpster.
My question is, are there any OTHER 5 speed transmissions that will swap besides a GST. Not sure if anyone's looked lately, but they don't seem to be exactly falling from the sky anymore these days.
Should I just get the LSD and rebuild for ~$400, order a $700 trans from a junk yard or find a compatible trans from another compatible car.
Please save the "1g and 2g 4G63 trans fits". I've read probably 300 threads where that's covered. I am very mechanically skilled and capable. I am a dealer tech that's been around for some 15ish years. Bell housing, gear set swaps ect are no issue.
