Looking for a 5-speed thats in working condition for my '82 Toy 4x4 pickup.

I'm in North Texas and am willing to pay for shipping from most anywhere in the country.

Thanks.

I have one! It is from an '81 that is in great working order.

What would ya take for it?

Well, let me first take some more detailed photographs for you first so we both can decide on a price. I don't want to be flamed prematurely again like I was not too long ago.

I would probably take around 150 bucks for it (free shipping).

I will post some photographs of it tomorrow, but I have one for now.

Here it is:

It comes with the shifter, I just had it off when the photograph was taken.

Like I said, I will have more detailing photographs for you tomorrow Lonestar Honcho.

Do you have PayPal?

Lonestar Honcho · « **Reply #6 on:** May 16, 2006, 09:27:31 PM »

Yes, I have PayPal.

One thing, not being a smarta$$, but are you sure that '81 has/had an L-52 and not a L-50?

I was just about to say... since its from an 81 It has a L50 not a L52. 82-83s had the L52's

Take the input bearing retainer off and get the bearing #.

Transmission Input Bearing Number
L43------------------ 6207N
L45/L50----------- 63/32N, 032-2
L52--------------- B32-14UR, 32BC08S1N

Appreciate it.

I apologize for the long wait.

It came out of an '81, so I believe it to be an L50.

Lonestar Honcho · « **Reply #12 on:** May 17, 2006, 09:34:05 PM »

Ok, thanks anyways.

nevermind.....

heres a bump for you

6.72:1 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 20, 2006, 10:53:45 PM »

I believe the L50 will work, correct?

Lonestar Honcho · « **Reply #16 on:** May 22, 2006, 12:38:20 PM »

Dunno

I think I'm gonna keep looking for a L-52, but thanks for the offer and replies.

YOguyDa · « **Reply #17 on:** May 22, 2006, 05:35:15 PM »

From what i understand, the L-50 should be a direct bolt on in place of an L-43, L-45, or L-52. I believe they got a little stronger as the years progressed, but i wouldnt know how much stronger an L-52 is compared to an L-50, since im stuck driving around with my L-43:(....lol.

Maybe someone else could varify.

6.72:1 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 22, 2006, 10:29:47 PM »

I am not totally sure about the strength issue either, but the L-50 I have worked great, but if I understand him wanting the most strength he can get!

heep70 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 22, 2006, 10:36:03 PM »

The L52 has the larger input bearing then the L50. The L52HD had larger bearings all the way through. They are found on turbos.

Yes, the L50 will bolt up and make sure you use the matching fork.

I have 2 L52's complete with transfer cases in VA (23692).
BigMike said he would give me 150 credit for the tranny and
100 for the TCase. So.. $250-$100 shipping, I guess what I am
saying is, I am making $150 make me a good offer with or
w/o the T Case.

have a G52 out of an 84, i too asked marlin's guys if they wanted it adn i believe Dave said he may pay up to $200. if itll work for you, ill go $200 and ship it myself (if it aint a ton of money!, have to check into that befor i open my mouth) no clutch parts tho, only the release arm. probaably needs going thru, although perhaps it was the worn clutch that made it feel like the trans may be worn. anyways, had 187k on it when removed, adn DID drive OK.
