They took the lead out of the formula.

I rebuild transmissions, I learned how to do them from Dr.Evil (Mike95125), he's my bud (of 13+ years) and only does 901's, so I don't mind giving him all those jobs. Besides he's a poor new MD, deep in debt, new family, etc.

I charge $500-600, plus parts to rebuild a trans, which I feel is a good deal.
The big issue I see with doing a 915/930 clinic is.... would we have enough spare parts to do this in a weekend?
At a 901 clinic we have lots of cheap core 914 transmissions to cannibalize for spare parts. Do you have spare 915's and 930's that we can cannibalize for spares? Spares would be the #1 issue.
The 901 clinic is completed in one weekend with everyones tranny done.

Now if we could get at least 5 guys together and have spares on hand, plus do this in one weekend without me having to finish everyones tranny later because we ran out of spares, then I would consider doing a clinic @ $300 a head.

This was a great tip, thanks! Moncton had 6 tubes at the warehouse
