    Wanted: F-series Trans...Trade for my Kia G-Series

    Well --

    First off, I am located in Lawrenceville, GA. I am about 30 miles away from Atlanta. For the right trade or deal, I am willing to meet 1/2 way. So if you are within 200 miles of Atlanta we can deal. Not willing to ship anything right now.

    I'm not a regular reader of these forums, but I refer to them a lot for the great tech info....

    I'm one of the members of FordFestiva.com. I'm swapping a BP into my Festiva, and bought a Kia G-Series 5-spd from a member of this forum (really good guy, BTW)....because everything I've read states that these are the strongest trans that I can squeeze into my little car. Unfortunately, I am having trouble finding the special jackshaft I need to make this work (I need a Capri XR2 jackshaft -- very had to find), and I want to get this project moving along while the days are still kinda warm.

    When I got the trans, I degreased it and painted it with aluminum paint. Its very clean and ready to be installed, see the pics.

    I am looking to trade this for any good F series and a set of axles from a 1986-1989 Mazda 323 (non turbo) or 1986-1989 Mercury Tracer. I'm not concerned with the condition of the axles so much -- I will probably just use them for cores for rebuilt ones, but the trans must be in good shape, as mine is. I can include some cash if you have something really nice, or new axles or something.

    How much would you just sell it for? Looks like you painted 'everything', lol.

      LOL!!!

      Yeah, I did paint everything....but I blocked off any open holes and didn't paint the open electrical connectors. I fully intended to use this in my own car and my aesthetic standards are not on par with the average ricer :D In my mind the paint is only there to prevent the surface rust after degreasing and make it more resisitant to rust in the future.

      I'd sell it for 90 bucks, which is less that I have in it....as long as I didnt have to drive it to you or ship it.

        Ok, I am pretty sure I'll take it for $90, so I am calling dibs . I live in Stone Mountain, so we are fairly close.

                ???

                I guess that was a joke, but despite having an IQ as high as Obama's, I missed it.

                    Anyway I could buy that halfshaft?
                    I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

                      I'll sell it to you for cheap ($25 shipped?) once I pick everything up.

                        I'd rather not break the two pieces up, but if the guy who called dibs doesn't show we can talk - or you can maybe deal directly with him after he buys it.
