My shifting fork for 5th gear and reverse has gone out. I can not longer engage into those two gears. I know the parts are not too expensive but I understand the labor is tremendous. How much should I expect to pay for something like this?

    A transmission overhaul is expensive especially if the gears and bearings have been chewing on ground up metal in the oil.
    I suggest checking into a guaranteed used transmission.
