The only body I know who might know would be at Sun Valley, unless Dave M has some handy dandy table. Each variant has so me difference, or else they would not have 6 digit type numbers. So a 722.3 could have up to a hundred variants. clay via Mercedes

So far I am still not finding why one transmission in the 722.3xx family is any more gooder than the next. #1 boy has a 722.3 in the 92 SE, and there was all manner of butt hurt about finding the ONE that was going to work in his car. Like it was made of mixed race/converted jewish foreskins.

Re: [MBZ] No car payment this month Was: A car for poos

Your SDL transmission has a vacuum modulator on the side, which might be different for a gasser? Maybe the gearing is different, or the stall rating of the torque converter? I know that for some years, the gasser transmissions would launch in 2nd gear vice 1st? - Max Charleston SC

Probably. I have never seen a 5 speed MB. A few are reported to exist in the land of unicorns. If it bolts up to a OM602, it should bolt up to a OM603. Probably Won't bolt up to a OM616. If you have the whole donor car, there may be enough parts there to make it work. Maybe even enough

Sun Valley is the only place I'd ever get a rebuilt/new MB auto trans from. Any place else is a crapshoot and probably a waste of money. For a bottom feeder car, i'd try a junkyard used auto trans or convert to 4 speed. Dan Penoff via Mercedes September 23,

Re: [MBZ] No car payment this month Was: A car for poos

I am convinced that should I ever need a transmission I will get one from Sun Valley. I have heard so many positive things about these guys over the years that I can't imagine anyone doing a better job. A W124 rebuilt transmission from them is $1750. Transmission R is pretty straightforward

As long as the body doesn't rust out theres not all that great a reason to ever get rid of a car. Say something big goes, like the transmission, you're out maybe $2,000 for a junkyard replacement which will probably have fewer miles than yours. Average that out over the next 20,000 miles and it
