Are They GOOD ENOUGH!

[MARVIN McINTYRE 2]

ST'er.... I am having a "newsed" tranny with 15,000 K on it installed in my 01' ST. Since this is a delicate issue (like heart surgery) I wanted to get some feedback because I trust your opinions out there in ST Land. I have the tranny, it looks good and all, but I hesitate to take it to just any tranny shop to install. If a shop has a lot of cars around, I will get cold feet when it comes to going there for obvious reasons, but I need to get rolling so I came here to ask for your opines and try to get a read on who will do it right. I live in Dallas Tx. (where the Cowboys didn't show for the game with the 'Skins last night!) and there are a number of places to go, but I'm not that eager to just let anyone do it. Anyone know where to get the right guys to do it? Thanks and Happy/Merry Christmas/Holidays to all!

I am no where near your area but you will find that most shops that specialize in trannys will normally do a good job. That plus the fact they have the equipment to plug into the system and pull the tranny information that will help them make any needed adjustments.

Maybe an AAMCO?



I've never dealt with them, but it's the first name I thought of...

 

[MARVIN McINTYRE 2]

Fer, I thought about them along the way, have since narrowed it down to a local shop with credentials, and ALLSTATE Transmissions. Leaning toward the credential one, but just want it done right. All in all, I want everything hooked up that is supposed to be, and the OD light to go away after the install. I don't need anything unhooked just to have the light go away. Thanks for the tip... will keep you posted!

Good Luck!

I would first ask what kind of warranty they are going to give you.

Ask around and find a good independent or find one in the yellow pages that has been around a number of years. DONT, use chains like Ammco or Allstate...They are only good for nationwide warranty...I have always got my best service from independents...
