2005 road king transmission

I need a 2004 road king transmission. The PO run it without transmission fluid. 2 teeth broke off and wedged in between 2 sprockets. Where can I buy or find a transmission without paying big money for one? I really have the old one out.

Thank you,

ebay. there's a ton. just be patient and bid on one that's clean with lots of pics. open it up when you get it to inspect. should be fine. new gaskets/seals and you're in business.

I agree with mike on location to acquire, but lots of 6s out there as well. Maybe upgrade

Is a 2005 road king transmission the same as a 2004 road king transmission ? I can't find any 2004 but found one 2005.
Thank you,

Just change out the gear set. Get you a manual and do it yourself. Here's some options.

Look also at local swap meets. You should have some in your area. I pretty regularly see transmissions at them.

Should be able to use a transmission from 2002 through 2006.

Opinions..... A gear set will cost a lot less and if you find a good one you will be in business. Did it with my Road King and good to go. As far as years, no difference from 97 to 07. Mine was hosed and probably could have gone cheaper on eBay but bought from a forum member here as mine was becoming too problematic with nearly 100K on the clock.
