AOD swap

I would vote new or rebuilt. I don't think theres any ones to avoid like the plague, they're all about the same as far as I know. Do a little research, Baumman Engineering has a lot of tech info : www.becontrols.com

They're really not too hard to rebuild if you're mechanically inclined at all. A Haynes or Chilton manual, some regular tools, a bench and a parts cleaner are about all you need. Oh, and get the special seal installers, they are a must.

Nothing like new parts! That said, I will be pulling my AOD in favor of a t-5 in the next few years. I hate automatics.

IIRC 1990+ are the better years. I think it had something to do with a stronger output shaft???? I'm sure you will be able to find out from Lentech or Baumman.
