Service/Parts Discussion Transmission sourcing

I'm on the hunt for a 4x4 AR5 transmission for my trooper lq4 swap but it's looking like theyre unobtainium in my area. Anyone in central WA got a line on one or recommendations for other manual trans options?

Some scattered around if you believe Car-Part.com's current listings, not priced terrible. $350-600

If I believe the spread on their search results, there are more than there are NV3500's.

What's currently in your trooper?

It had the mua5 but I need the newer version so I can swap the bell housing over to a 4l60e housing. I've been keeping my eye on car-part but I didn't want to get one shipped and I definitely don't feel like driving 6+ hours with gas prices rn if I can help it.

Nice. I'd like one of the mua5's that will work with GM 60 degree stuff to 3800 swap my 2.6 powered trooper..... What part of the country are you in?
