[MBZ] Models that have the same transmission as the 300 SD.

2006-01-16 Thread Nick Wellinghoff
Hi all, Does anyone know, have a list, or know how I can find out what models of Mercedes have the same transmission that is in the 1982 300 SD? I am searching for used transmission locally and am getting a lot of replays from people with similar models that say it might work in an 82 300 SD.

My tranny on my 82 300 SD went over 300k miles. The last 50 k it leaked a little and progressively got worse. Just last week I lost 2nd gear. They will last a long time. For twice the price of 650 you can almost get a new one sooo it's a gamble indeed. Nick 82 300 SD -Original
