As of July 1998:

Weddle Engineering
Performance Transaxle Products
P.O. Box  15466
Long Beach
California   USA    90815

free catalog     ( 562 ) 598 2731

Syncro Transmission rebuilt   US$ 1995.00
  2 year warranty at their shop, your transport costs. US$ 600 for core.

Front differential rebuild    US$ 1195.00

Viscous Coupling rebuild      US$  595.00              US$ 300 for core.

Don't know  more, in particular  nothing about warranties for front diff

Hope it helps anyway.
