Hey Neil, my 285 has a bent fork from a gorilla autocross instructor. Are you implying that replacing or bending it back might be a relatively simple task, at least far short of a rebuilt?


Ross:

I would try and sell Jim Blanton your used trannies and see if he'll give you something off the price of the rebuild ($2500 or so). These are tough to rebuild, unless you have just worn forks or something, so the cores are pretty useless to you.
