    Well i still have my old bellhousing from my 284, i repaired and welded the crack it had myself but all the gears and such are gone now apparently and it wines REALLY bad when I am driving it. The 282 won't bolt right up? So just swap internals from one into my 284? Finding parts for anything in Canada is a pain and theres no other trannys like this one I can use at any wrecker I have checked so putting the f60 in would be a nightmare to find parts. Found a 284 online for sale for $700 but the guy ended up selling it locally If I want to replace my 284 with a 282 what should I do to do that... :3 thanks

    I can't say exactly what needs done but I'de imagine the trans mount and the 282 itself, possibly axles if the spline count doesn't add up. If the shift cables don't match the trans side it shouldn't be too hard to fix one way or another.

    One thing to be careful is what frame type the 282 bolts into. W-bodies have a special bellhousing for the mount. So only a w-body 282 will fit another w-body. But other body types should be interchangable. The bellhoousing can be swapped as thats what needed done for mine to fit (w-body) GP.

    W-body 282 trans mount is the hardest thing to find. Hard to come by, I got lucky finding ONE at rockautoparts. So if you buy a used 282 from a w-body car, insist you get the mount as well.

      intermediate shaft bracket is another consideration.

        Is it possible for a 284 bell housing to be bolted up to a 282? That might solve the mount problem for this guy. I read someone said they can but you know how I-Net education goes.

          You can swap a 284 bellhousing onto the W41 HO 282 so I would say it might be possible.

            hey where are you located? I have 3 284's. 4, actually but the last one is for parts only I would guess; I don't know anything about it.
            I'm located in the St Catharines area of Ontario. LMK; have them listed on kijiji and Craigs list etc.
            PM me etc; maybe I can help.
