Hello everyone,
New guy here. Just curious on anyones opinion on whether I should keep or sell my Laredo. 216,000 miles on the chassis. Brand new brakes, newer tires, new muffler.

Problem is it won't go into reverse. New Tranny? Is it worth fixing?

Would love any input.
Thanks

 

Fix 'er! She looks great! I love my '97.
And Welcome to CF from Dan in Tenn.!

 

Yes it is worth fixin. The way ole Jeeps are selling now it would be best to just hold on to it. If you were to sell it with a bad tranny you are only looking to get 500 bucks with that many miles. You can pick up a JY tranny for that for almost nothing. Then have some fun learning how to put it in.

 

my friend put a tranny in his. its a...BITC....i mean blast

 

Agreed with XJ Stryker. You'll have to sell it dirt cheap with the tranny problem, and it looks like it's got lots of life left.

 

i would deff. fix it that truck is real clean...oh and how did u put the picture in your post i would like to put a new thread up with some wheelin pictures??

 

with my nissan and explorer my trans fluid was low cuasing it to not go into reverse..hoping youve checked it alredy

 

fix in a hart beat

 

How come everyone always says "Fun" lol

Oh I would fix her, i redid mine and shes an 89 w/ tons of problems but it was worth every penny!

 

that thing is crazy clean, keep it for sure

 

fix it for sure!

 

Replace the tranny and drive it until the wheels fall off. That is the cleanest GC I've seen in awhile.

 

Fix it without hesitation.

 

Thanks to everyone who replied. I agree that it is worth fixing, however my wife is pretty set on getting something newer. So I think that we are probably going to end up selling it. Thanks again!

I have been reading through alot of posts on this forum. Lots of good stuff!

 

Why not fix it keep it and get something else then? If you think about it, as clean as that is.. Do you really think you will find something newer with better build quality and reliability? I doubt it. Where are you and what engine/trans is in it?
