Arrow F35 service suggestions

Hello gang
I have my stock f35 working just fine and then decided to install the obx lsd, 4.05 gearing but now 4th and 5th gear pop out while cruising. I need a responsable shop I could send my tranny so they can see what is wrong. any suggestions on where I can contact? if no then somewhere where I can buy a tranny

thank you in advance!

They started in SAABs in the 80s and they were not particularly popular or expensive initially.

I see you're in PR, I'd honestly look into a F23 swap as I'm sure they're easier to source locally or even from the mainland.

If I still had my car I would have one of Jason's trans in it. What he does to strengthen the trans is great.

I agree with ECaulk... I think the F23 swap is the best option. I'm looking into it myself right now.

But, did you replace the necessary components when you had it apart? There's a handful of things that HAVE to be replaced when an F35 is pulled apart. The trans that I have now had an aftermarket Quaife added to it, and I seem to recall that he had the same issues when he first got it back on the road.

Is that the guy in Nebraska or Kansas? I saw mention of something on Facebook, but couldn't ever get any hard info on it. I also don't know that I'm interested in paying a ton of money for any kind of modification to this transmission.
