Two years ago when the M47 failed in my '92, my choice was between a used box with 165K on it or a rebuild - and the price was about the same (an indy Volvo shop doing the work). Volvos aren't real prolific down here in the desert southwest, so I feared a "take what you get" rebuild and went with the boneyard box. The whole job with box, labor, clutch kit, rear main seal and resurfacing the flywheel was about $1500. If I had a spare car I would have taken the task on myself, but that wasn't the case.
