Long story short - eldest tore up tranny in my 2000 K2500 pickup. Had local shop rebuilt it. It failed (3 & OD) after 3 months, took it back for warranty work and they replaced solenoids.
Took it back on the road and it failed again (20 days) after solenoid r&r - again lost high end. Local shop said 3rd repair not covered by warranty.
Now planning to go to AAMCO - had good experience with them in the past. Rig will be used for daily driver and oocasional heavy hauling (Oliver 77 & 88 or Oliver 1650) to area farm shows in SE.
Options: Install stock reman trans or
rebuild and upgrade mine:
Upgrades include
Shift kit
Bigger transmission cooler
Deeper pan for more fluid
Fluid temp gauge
Anything else I should think of?
