RichardsRelic's seems to be a reputable source. If you question what is included for the price, I am sure that they will tell you.
Reputable source? Definitely not. I could tell countless stories of people that I've come across that have been burned by him. Including the transmission that he supposedly "rebuilt" for someone that I helped fix the correct way. It looked like it was only opened up and then put back together.....no new parts installed or anything.
Drew, you hit the nail right on the head! Buyer beware......avoid him as a source of parts. There are higher quality and lower priced options out there.

I have decided to fix the tranny myself. I fixed the Briggs Vanguard motor that wouldn't shut down (a new kill wire attached to the magnetos). Question... should I attempt to just install the bands and plunger O rings or go for the complete rebuild? That is if it's just a broken band and the drum isn't scored. Who do you suggest is the best source for parts?
Help me out JP, what are the sources for higher quality parts? I have purchased wheel adapters from Richard and from another source, Richards are WAY better!! His are 1/4 inch thick with pressed in studs that actually line up with the wheel holes correctly. The others were made of 1\8 with bolts welded on crooked, where's the value in that?
That's a great option and will not only save you money, but help you to learn about how it operates better. I would suggest replacing all seals and gaskets. Check your bearings out well too. If they are showing signs of wear or play, go ahead and replace them. I believe mudd-Ox sells a seal kit as well as the bearings and bands if needed. If the drum is too bad, post in the wanted thread on here. I'm sure you can source a good one much cheaper here than anywhere else, but feel free to shop around. Also, getting bands relined is a good option to save money.
l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!
Hi Joe, I can help you out for better quality and LOWER priced parts if you need wheel adapters. I got them from Buffalo Bearing actually......1/4" thick with pressed in studs that lined up with the wheel holes perfectly too. And much better service, with no negative condescending attitude from the guys there.

A T20 rebuild question... When I replace the bands how hard is it to remove the old pins on the plungers that the bolts attach to?
