any one know where i can buy a cheap AOD tranny to replace...i dont care if its 100% bone stock and no fancy shift kits or anything....its going towards a daily driver to replace my busted AOD in my 5.0...and yes yes yes i know what ull say .. "u should get a lentech, ull regret it" to be honest i wont...i just need it going and sell it to get my 05 GT....im not looking to get a tranny thats pulled from an old 5.0...its gotta be either brand new or remanufacturerd...and i dont want to spend a ton of cash...so no lentech or b/m or tci i guess...id like to spend MAX 700$ ty

I know that ampperformance.com sells the AOD stock for $895 and I am pretty sure that they buy and sell used transmission. That might be a place that you would want to check out. I couldnt tell you how much they would go for but it couldnt hurt to find out. Good luck.

You get what you pay for and in the case of an AOD if you cheap out you'll be lucky if it makes it a week. If you remove the one you have yourself you should be able to get a bench job for about $400....and rebuild it, provided it doesn't need a new drum or other parts. I doubt you will find a new one for $700 that is worth anything.

you mean DOA right, isn't it the Lentech AOD that is supposed to be stronger than a Turob 400 after mods???
As for the T5, you'd have to do a fair amount of parts swapping and some tight underdash work, all in all its not to hard to convert to manual.

I have a friend that put a ger in his its running fine. If your selling it anyways then I would say go with it. If it goes out then they will replace it for ya. I am sure you could even talk them into paying for the labor if it did go out.

I wouldn't install anything from GER if you gave it to me! Over the past 10 years I have seen nothing but junk come from that company regardless of what it was....buyer beware with anything from GER. If your friend is having good luck then great but it's the first I've ever heard of compared to 4 close personal friends(1 Mustang, 1 Cuda, 1 Camaro and 1 Lemans) having problems and countless others I've heard of.
