[zKars]

The left hand threaded main shaft nut on the FS5W71B transmissions has been NLA for a while. Smome member here had some made, but guess what?

They are back in stock at Transmission Parts Distributors. Just got an email today.  Bit pricey, $29 USD..... ouch....

Yeah, now says $12.88. No clue where I got the $29 from. Could have sworn that the first price I saw. the older I get the more I’m amazed at my mind. Usually not in a good way.

Anyway, hope this helps all of us Transmission builders. Enjoy

The $29 must have been in Canadian dollars. 😉

It even says $19.95 was the old retail and slash reduced to $12.88. 

I bought two and still came out ahead. 

No sales tax either which is odd for a WA sale. 

(At first I had that same thought, Canadian dollars?)

I thought it was the right-hand nut that was difficult to find.
