If you are ready to buy the new trans for your truck, make sure you clarify what a "warranty" means with the company selling you the trans. Things are not what they seem sometimes.
I thought I could spend about 3600 for a perfect new trans and converter and install it myself. There sure are enough to choose from.
Now I make calls and am asked how much horsepower I have...then I find out that the "warranty" is not REALLY on the whole transmission.
I spoke with two different manufacturers directly who said that unless I went with the special, unlisted billet input shaft....(at a 900.00 to 1200.00 price increase mind you) they would not honor the input shaft breakage or resulting damage and the repair would be on my back.
(My truck would be lucky to have 400 HP at the crank)
When all is said and done, for an iron clad warranty, you have to pay 4500 for the parts, then have the pressures certified by a retail shop etc etc.. By the time you are done with shipping, fluid and everything, you are over 5,000.00.
Too rich for this yankees blood!
Time to get out the die grinder...4500, here I come!!
Anyone got deals on a south bend clutch?
<trans> How much for that warranty?
