Okay so please explain??? :booo: :booo:

if the guy is paying half then i say go for it, but make sure you get a warranty with it. they can be complete assholes to their customers. for them it comes down to the dollar sign and thats about it. ive seen it go as far as a customer's tranny broke and TRC blamed it on the customer, even though it wasn't the customers fault. they were known for this! if something goes wrong with it they usually (not all the time) will try to blame it on someone else

on the plus side they do have a tranny dyno

Well they are suppose to be giving me a 12/12,000 mile warranty. So I guess we will see.

just make sure you follow the conditions of their warranty and everything should be cool. wish you best of luck
 
Wildman,
Do yourself a favor and find out EXACTLY how much $ that 50% equals.
Because some folk just mark it up 200%, then give you 50% off.

Well I picked up the tranny from TRC today. My half of the rebuild was $700 & I also had to pay Snohomish Transmission for their time plus the new case. I am hoping to get everything installed this weekend.

Let us know how everything works once its all back together
 
when you install the trans, try to be sure to install a NEW clean oil cooler that is separate and not connected in any way to your existing radiator.

Why, you ask? well, this way, you can say that you had adequate cooling on the trans should the convertor clutch lining fail. by the way, when this happens, it plugs the cooler, and the overdrive clutches overheat because they are the first part of the trans to get cool fluid from the cooler... if its cooling. Most dodge owners dont realize that when they lose OD, its only a matter of time before they lose the rest of the trans... like 15- 20 minutes.

Perhaps you got lucky and they did the upgrades to the lube circuit inside the trans. this will REALLY help keep your trans alive longer. takes about 15 minutes total. and while they were in there, they SHOULD have *(in good conscience) upgraded at least one of the drums to hold an extra clutch by changing out pressure plates. only takes a second, and doing so will ensure more happy customers. doesnt cost much either.

Hope you got a good one.

A buddy of mine builds em. Another buddy of mine just had his gone through to the tune of 1800 bucks, (edit: I think). half ton dodge, now capable of towing 17000 lbs, and its got the firmest shifts i have seen in a 46re.

Hope it works for you.

Well I am not going to get much of anything done to my Jeep this weekend. The EX was suppose to take Karrlie for the weekend and text me Friday moring that she can't. It just gets my blood boiling when she pulls **** like this. I had talked to her on Wednesday and everything was a go. No she says everyone in the house is sick but couldn't let me know this on Thursday or Friday. I had to contact her before she said anything.

So I have someone that comes over twice a week now to watch her so I can get a little break. I'll get in a few hours each day on the Jeep then.

That doesnt sound like a fun situation, sorry you are having to go through that
