I've seen RWD transmission shatter a gear when there was no oil inside. All the teeth shear off. It went about 100mi on the highway before it blew up.

Confirm the cable isn't seized up inside the housing, particularly the lines running from the center of the car to each wheel.

Yes, it will. The gears will wear out if the bearing is not supporting it properly. Assuming the teeth don't shatter due to shifting under load, what's left will not be worth rebuilding.

Hard to tell in the pic, but if it's a straight cylinder with equally rounded ends, then yes that's it. It's the only transmission part that will fit in the shift rod.

Like Neal said, it's because these are the same transmission model and the parts are interchangeable. You just have to know which parts need to be interchanged when you want to mix and match.

Look on the opposite housing. It slides in lengthwise alongside the two deepest bearing bores. The bits of red foam rubber should give a clue where it came from.

If you can pull and replace the trans and clutch yourself, I say consider it. If you have to pay a shop to do the work, pass.

That hole is just there to help you knock out the input shaft seal during a rebuild. It's not a vent or anything.

If you're near Harrisburg bring the new transmission by me and I can crack it open and check the condition of the internals before you install it. Takes about an hour to pull it apart and reseal it.
