yep 50-60$, +fluid,+pump gasket,+cover gasket,+shipping & taxes...now what are we up to?
To each there own, there are lots of other things that can cause damage and there are lots of items that are "cheap insurance" that's what the aftermarket relies on, I never said they were a bad idea, I just think there not nessesary.
Apon dissasembley of my transmission yesterday I found that the C-clip that holds the gears in place on the end of the countershaft was all messed up and bearly able to hold on, this was the first time I split the cases, so it was like this from factory.
The point is shit happens, I could tell everyone the factory C-clip is crap and everyone should split there case and replace it with a "hi-perf" clip I sell for $4.99 because after all look what happened to me and it would be cheap insurance.
Boom!, an aftermarket peice is born. But after all I'm just one of 10,000,000 Banshees out there that it happened to, so is it nessesary? not realy. Thats all I'm trying to say.
After all it is your Banshee and you make the choices, I've made mine and I know that if something should go wrong with it there is an aftermarket peice waiting
