I think that's Jon's way of telling Tim he should make a trip north of the Red River for a transmission. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: What tranny to get?

I vote for Travis in my signature.

2900 bucks for his ultimate build tranny with a 3 year unlimited mile warrenty. That price includes a billet TC, custom tuned shift firmness, and tranny R&amp;R.

He rebuilt my old AAMCO tranny that failed at 26K miles.

Re: What tranny to get?

I just put that to see who would vote for it. I should have included an other. I'd get a suncoast before an aamco.

Yea it does.
Don't laugh I had them rebuild my tranny [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img] 2K down the drain. I only wish I had known to ask here when I needed a tranny back in 02. Though it has held up to me beating on it so far [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img] I am going to have a BTS put in this summer.
