i can't answer your question but i will tell you that it would be so much cheaper and less of a headache just to buy a new d series tranny. they are uber cheap, ive seen some go for as low as $50.

D-series trannies go for cheap. I just sold my y8 tranny for $100. No one will pay more than $150 for a d-series transmission.

I'm using a thread based on a B-Series tranny as a guide for my D-Series tranny rebuild. Same thing really. It also helps to have/download a Factory Service Manual. And to the poster(s) above, they are correct. A quicker/cheaper alternative might be to just buy a used one that's in good working order.

Can anyone recommend a site to buy a used d series tranny? or should I just use marketplace/junkyards?

It is cheeper to buy used. I think I had over $600 into my rebuild but that included installng a lsd, new syncrose, all the bearings and misc bits and pieces. However unlike yours I have had the car since new didn't have any gear problems. That can get really expensive
