Default tranny blew today

well i have been posting threads lately about the tranny being 4-5 mph off after putting bigger tires on and then tranny started slipping between 2nd and 3rd gears so i took it to a tranny place yesterday and they said it was time it has 170,000 miles on it they want 1,600.00 to rebuilt it but i found one in a junkyard for 400.00 with 79,000 on it and the tranny place will intall it for 400.00 so 800.00 is better then 1,600.00 just as all as the junkyard tranny is good

if you can pull it you can reinstall it your self. I might have to do this with mine and i'm not about to pay anyone to install it for me.
