There are several different options when deciding what to do when faced with major repairs to a vehicle. Obviously the cost of repair, down time, personal finances, age and service life of the vehicle should be considered when making these decisions. CUSTOM REBUILT TRANSMISSIONS, rebuilt in our shop are the most common, cost effective way of bringing your vehicle back in service. We use only name brand trusted parts and have the ability to adjust the performance of the transmission to prevent repeat failures. Most of our custom rebuilt transmissions come with a 1 year unlimited mile “ATSG” warranty. In most cases extended warranties can be purchased for 2/24 and 3/36 periods. RE MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSIONS. We can purchase transmissions from many different sources. Dealers and vendors that offer various warranties for their product. The performance of these warranties vary and should be considered when making a decision. Re manufactured transmissions usually cost around 30-50% higher than rebuilt. USED TRANSMISSIONS. We can purchase used transmissions and install them but warranties vary greatly. Most used transmissions only have a 90 day part only warranty. Labor is not covered if the transmission fails for any reason. We strongly recommend replacing all the external oil seal and servicing the filter before installing a used transmission. |
If after receiving a diagnosis, you are told that transmission removal is required for repair, an understanding of this procedure is important. A quality rebuilt or repaired transmission is only as good as its installation. R&I procedures are dictated by the type of transmission and vehicle being worked on (RWD) rear wheel drive. (FWD) Front wheel drive, and (4WD) 4 wheel drive cars and trucks as well as Hybrid vehicles with (CVT) continuously variable transmissions each need special considerations when working on them. RWD vehicles have a transmission. The differential is at the rear of the vehicle driven by a drive shaft. FWD vehicles have a trans axle. The transmission and differential are integral. Two drive axles turn the wheels at the front of the vehicle. 4WD vehicles have a transmission coupled to a transfer case. The transfer case transfers power to the front and rear differentials using two drive shafts. Most 4WD vehicles are capable of running in a 2WD mode. HYBRID vehicles use a combination electric motors and gas engine usually coupled to a CVT transmission. Extra care must be taken when working on these vehicles due to the risk of electrical shock. CVT vehicles and some ultra low emissions vehicles such as Hybrids usually have FWD Continuously variable transmission that can seamlessly change gear ratios according to demand. |
The transmissions custom rebuilt here in our shop all receive a master overhaul kit, torque converter, bands, bushings, filter, internal electronics and factory recommended or equivalent transmission fluid standard. For most vehicles this is all that is necessary to bring the transmission back to factory specification. After we disassemble and inspect all the components of the transmission any other parts needed such as; pumps, gears, drums and shafts are then purchased. The transmission is then thoroughly cleaned and reassembled. All vehicles are road tested and adjusted for proper operation. The vehicles on board computer is checked and cleared for any transmission related codes. |
