I'm thinking we should. Let me tell you about yesterday:
I went to go to the bank to make a deposit, then on the way home the transmission went out in my van. I puttered all the way home at 5mph or less, while cars behind me honked and cut around me.
When I got home, I called the transmission shop (since a tranny is the only thing I can't work on) and the repairman told me my car isn't worth repairing.
I called another shop, and that guy will told me he cannot quote me a price until he has removed the transmission from the vehicle to inspect it...which will cost me $175 labor.
I told him he was a phallus, and he hung up on me.
Welcome to my world. So...does anyone here know how hard it is to swap out an A413 transmission on a Chrysler K-car? Maybe I can find a rebuilt one somewhere and put it in myself. I'm no stranger to car repairs. I can easily swap CV axles, replace motor mounts, and overhaul a simple engine while it's still in the vehicle.

♫Yesterday, all my troubles were too hard to take. I felt my head was going to break. Oh, I just hated yesterday.
Suddenly, my old car is falling apart on me. The transmission is too old ,you see. Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why, I said that word,I don't know. It was so bad. No wonder that guy hung up on me, now my car's still broken and I'm so sa a a ad.
Yesterday, my car broke down and I was asked to pay and pay. This wasn't such a groovy day. Oh, let's just flush that day away.
Mmm mmmm mmm mmmm yesterday.♫

Really, it is best just to drop the whole front assembly with the engine on it, replace the tranny, then pop it all back in; It would be allot easier if you had access to a lift, there isnt a whole lot else to do. Sorry I cant be of more help

rebuild the trans follow link for parts there are manuals you can order online or sell your problem for 50 bucks at scrapyard those are hard to find the 96-99 neon used them but don't know if it will fit your cars because of the casing. Honestly it not worth time to do.
