Daniel,

I installed one built by Darly at aatransaxle(aatransaxle@direcway.com)this
spring and am completely satisfied with it to date. Our van is an 87 Westy
Syncro running stock sized tires/wheels and is used mainly for camping
trips, though I have been driving it to work this summer. I had Daryl swap
out third and fourth gears to lower our operating rpm and love it, we now
cruise 70mph at approx. 3400rpm. Daryl kept in contact with us both prior to
and after he shipped the transmission and has been great to work with. If I
needed another transmission I would not hesitate to call him.
