Rebuilt Transmissions, Refresh Your Cars Attitude

Buy Rebuilt Transmissions

Buy Rebuilt Transmissions

One way to be economically intelligent is not to jump off the deep end if your older car needs a replacement transmission and buy a new car. If your car is in good shape otherwise, why not replace the transmission?

For a car or truck that is in good overall condition you can accomplish two things, one is that your car will be drivable after you put one of our transmissions in your vehicle. The other thing that happens is that now that your car runs like new again, you probably forgot how good your old car ran before. People don’t notice the slow decline in performance and gas mileage during the period a transmission deteriorates and then fails because we are so used to our cars “feel”.

Many happy customers call GotTransmissions.com to thank them, and let the experts know how much they appreciate the good advise they were given in terms of what the best choice was in a replacement transmissions. Surprising as it may sound, when an individual has a serious transmission problem and ultimately a failure, they suddenly realize how bad the car was running. The first thing that comes to mind upon driving the vehicle with a fresh transmission is how much different the car feels and that it would have been a waste of money to buy a new car as a knee-jerk reaction.

This is one of the most important things I will mention about the replacement of a transmission, especially if you are a home mechanic. The transmission cooling portion of the radiator positively must be flushed or purged of the burnt contaminated automatic transmission fluid or I promise you that big time problems will occur when the cooler-muck goes right into your fresh transmission, thus causing serious problems that may not be guaranteed.

Transmission replacement shops use expensive equipment that force flushes a cleaning agent through the cooler lines and the cooling portion of the radiator and auxiliary cooler if so equipped. Fortunately for home mechanics there is a product on the market that is in an aerosol can that has a screw fitting that hooks to a cooler line that flushes the proper agent through the lines without the need for a fancy flushing tool. In fact many shops use this method instead of a buying an expensive flush tool.

Many of the suppliers of used, rebuilt and new replacement transmissions include the aerosol cooler flush and directions for use, with the package. They don’t want any problems or excuses either. Some companies include an auxiliary cooler if the situation warrants.

When I owned my transmission shop from 1981 to 2006 (I sold it), we built excellent relationships and confidence in our customers. Customers were required to return in two weeks for a free warranty recheck of the work we performed on their tranny, almost always the first two things that came out of their mouths’ were “how wonderful their cars drive now that it was performing like it used too, and they were very pleased with their decision and happy to have kept the car and saved literally multi-thousands of dollars by not trading their car in”.

The point of this article is that is that sometimes when you understand a situation well enough to make an informed decision, not have a knee-jerk decision, it builds confidence in your ability to make good decisions. That almost always makes you feel good about yourself and better about your car. FYI, I still drive my 1988 GMC 1 ton pickup truck with a GMC T-700R4 transmission. I bought it new and have maintained it just like I recommend in my Blog articles presented here for free. Enjoy. GotTransmissions.com @ 866-320-1182.

When someone mentions that they are looking at transmissions, or they just purchased a transmission for their car, it seems like someone has a story and someone has advise and some folks draw a blank.

There are plenty of sad stories about the purchase of a transmission or having your transmission repaired at a shop and not having the results you expected and were promised delivered to you. For most folks this method of operation does not work well, especially on a very expensive product. We are in the business of creating positive stories about transmission replacement.

The only people capable of good transmission advise are: 1. A top quality transmission replacement company or shop. 2. GotTransmissions.com staff members. Asking or listening to someone who is not a transmission specialist is like calling your dentist about open heart surgery. Get advise from a relevant source.

Although there are millions of queries when you start to Google for a replacement transmission. Realistically speaking, how can all of them be quality viable sources? Well, all of them aren’t. It is up to you to call the proper place. One way of shopping on the internet is to select from a top 10 Google query. Does that guarantee success? Not necessarily, that company may have lots of advertising money.

We have proven over many years that we are one of the top, if not the top transmission suppliers in the continental USA. We spend our money on our products, not excessive advertising, that is how we have outperformed the competition for years.

We don’t mince words either. A rebuilt transmission is the same thing as a remanufactured transmission. That is the legal description according to APRA (American Remanufactured Parts Association). Don’t be confused by the term remanufactured as a more sophisticated term, it means the same thing, and any reputable firm will make that information immediately available to all consumers.

Having a good sold knowledge of transmission replacement is a good starting point. A small amount of viable info makes the decision on who to buy transmissions from. GotTransmissions.com will spend as much time as you need educating you, so you know your choice of transmission supply companies is a solid value. 866-320-1182.

Chevy 4L80E Transmissions for Sale, No Reverse Problems..

Questions? Chevy 4L80E Transmissions for Sale

Questions? Chevy 4L80E Transmissions for Sale

Here is a common complaint concerning the 4L80E Chevy transmissions:

Question: Hay there,please help me out.
Driving without problems for 8 years a 3500 K dually 6.2 diesel from ,91 now ,tranny 4L80E.

But sinds twoo weeks it has no reverse anymore.
I mean to say, when i shift in to R , i feel the klick and it seems it will go reverse but it not go,s.
On a flat road it go,s a litle bit reverse.
Forward gears are more or less ok but when it comes in 3 or 4 it slips more with more rpm,s than it dit before.
We chanced the fluid and filter but no progress.
Is the tranny electronical or manual operatad.
Is there a Data link conector on my truck which i can read, if yes where is
it located and how does it work.

Answer: You should simply pay to have a scan and diagnosis. Time is flying by while you ask a bunch of non professionals your problem. It is good to have the codes pulled, but this is not a very sophisticated system, so don’t expect much information.

You have more serious issues going on here. When you have a combination of no reverse and a bad 3rd gear slippage, it narrows the problem to the direct/3rd clutch pack. This is either a burned up/damaged or worn out clutch pack or drum, or, the apply piston is cracked in the 3rd clutch drum.

The cure is as such: If you have a 1991 transmission, you have a very early model, which would not have any updates unless it was rebuilt properly. Properly is the operative word. Properly means using the updated piston assembly, not a good used original equipment or stock new one. Get it?

The other issue concerns using the correct and effective updates available now to correct why the piston cracks in the first place. Without actually examining the vehicle, there is no way anyone, even me can diagnose your problem. If you get it diagagnosed and you need a replacement transmission, make sure you replace it with the best transmission available.

The transmissions we sell are all updated to current or even better standards. Our 4L80E Chevy truck transmissions have every Chevrolet update installed, and a Transgo update kit installed during the rebuilding process. This is how we consistently outperform the competition. Provide you with the finest rebuilt transmission on the market.

Once you start to understand more about replacement transmissions, it becomes obvious that GotTransmissions.com supplies the finest rebuilt Chevy transmissions anywhere. Call us and find out more about how to choose the right transmission for your needs. No charge for knowledge. 866-320-1182.

Affordable Rebuilt Manual Transmissions for Sale.

Good News: Manual Transmissions for Sale.

Good News: Manual Transmissions for Sale.

Great care needs to be taken in identifying manual transmissions. Many units are produced with the same design externally, but have different ratios to work with the many engines found in these vehicles.

Obviously a transmission with gear ratios for a 2.3-liter, 4-cylinder engine will not be very durable if used in a V8 application. Manual transmissions designed for gasoline engines will have poor drivability if used with diesel engines, and vice versa. A real world nightmare occurs when you get a vehicle in the shop that has had a previous repair and the repairing shop did a junkyard swap.

The main problem with that scenario is that the wrong unit was installed from the junkyard and the customer is now in your shop to get it repaired correctly. In a typical scenario all ID tags are gone from the unit. If you order parts to repair the unit that is in the vehicle currently, you will fix this unit, but the ratios will still be wrong for the vehicle it is in. This is why the VIN, tooth counts, bearing numbers, and case casting numbers are extremely important not only to order parts, but to insure that this is the right unit for the engine-chassis combination you are repairing.

I have seen countless instances where shops have correctly fixed a unit only to have it fail quickly because someone had put a 4-cylinder unit where a V8 should be. When working on standards try to obtain as much information as you can and to preserve all ID tags with the unit.

By dealing with a competent company that is interested in really solving your problem, chances are you will get the proper transmission for your application. Using all the tools available to identify the correct replacement transmission is one way we outperform the competition. The main tool immediately available is the VIN, or vehicle identification number, which is on your registration.

The VIN is the number we want you to have available when you call us, @ 866-320-1182. By buying the replacement transmission that matches your vehicle and budget, you can expect to exceed all expectations and limit the pain and frustration, leaving our customers with a positive experience when buying transmissions.

Engineered to work hard in anonymity, the Chevy 4L60E transmissions are tough enough to withstand the rigors of the toughest heavy duty commercial trucks, used for towing/hauling or extreme off-roading & racing or for the everyday grocery-getter. It is ideal for vehicles powered by 4.8, 5.3, LS1, or 6.0L engines.

Equipped with an upgraded automatic transmission valve body, our rebuilt units allow you to shift the vehicle into each gear change or, by placing it in the drive position, remaining fully automatic.

The 4L60E is one of the best transmissions ever produced. It is also one of the most popular transmissions in existence. It was introduced in the early 1980’s as a T700R4, which was not computerized at all. The 4L60E is a fully computerized version with plenty of upgrades designed by the General Motors team over the years.

The 4L60E is a fully computerized transmission which operates of of input and output sensors located in critical areas of the drive-train to send information back to the computer, which in turn tells the transmission how to operate. Not unlike the brain in your head.

Our transmissions have the value built right into them at the transmission re-manufacturing facility. As each transmission goes through the entire rebuilding process, every worn part is replaced with better than original equipment parts.

After the transmission is fully rebuilt, we then put it on a piece of test equipment known as a ”dyno”, which tests every function of the transmission and records it for the records. If there are any inconsistencies, it goes to the transmission hospital and is re-calibrated and then retested.

We know that the value is built into every rebuilt transmission we sell. Our warranties prove it. Call one of our representatives and let them provide the education and information you need to buy the right rebuilt transmission for your needs. GotTransmissions.com. 866-320-1182.

Buy Transmissions with Confidence

Buy Transmissions with Confidence

The thought of having a transmission failure and possibly having to buy a replacement transmission is somewhat of a nightmare for most people. With the horror stories concerning certain transmission shop chains, how would those folks choose the right transmission supply company?

Lack of knowledge and information creates fear. Facing a large repair bill on your car makes finding a business you can trust to provide plenty of information regarding your situation one of the keys to your success. Once you have enough of an understanding of said subject, fear will dissipate and confidence will set in. Our first job is to have our customers relax and start to learn about transmissions and which transmission suits your particular situation.

Obviously selling a superior product is another ingredient in the recipe for a successful transmission transplant. Since all used transmissions are not the same, it is very important to buy transmissions which are second hand units with low mileage, and that is where we accelerate. We have access to the finest used transmissions recyclers in the world.

Our used transmissions generally have around 30 to 40 thousand miles on them. Barely broken in. Every one of them is pre tested for performance and leaks, eliminating possible problems before the transmissions are sold, rejecting them for sale.

Our transmissions have quality and pure value built right into the job. The best parts avilable are used in every rebuild. We also replace all of the electrical components on computerized transmissions. The most important thing that our rebuilders do to every rebuilt transmission is to put an upgrade kit in each transmission.

An update kit virtually eliminates any factory deficiencies in the transmission and allows the transmission to work better than it did when it was new. An update kit can double the life of many transmissions as well. Assuming you perform proper maintenance. That is how we build quality and value into our transmissions.

How can we have such a reputable business. The owner. The owner sets the tone. If the owner is a man of the highest quality like Brian Hanson, who is the owner of GotTransmissions.com, than the business is a top level company. We sell confidence. That is the bottom line.

Low Mileage Acura Vigor transmissions for sale.

The Acura Vigor was a mid-size sedan produced between 1992 and 1994. This Acura model was based from the Acura sedan, which was marketed two years earlier. Something unique about this car is that it carried a 5-cylinder longitudinal (front-to-back) engine rather than transverse type of engine. It is fitted with one of the 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmissions.

Since you are here for transmission information or to buy transmissions, please read more. No matter what the particular transmission or transmission control module you need, we are sure to have it.

Our Acura transmissions recycling yards offer us the best used transmissions they receive for distribution. We get first ‘dibs’.

Used Transmissions provide the value most folks need. Especially in ordinary driving conditions. We provide used units with extra low mileage. Most of these low mileage automatic gearboxes come out of newer cars that were in a an accident and totaled.

Are Manual Transmissions A Dying Breed?

Are Manual transmissions a dying breed?

Are Manual transmissions a dying breed?

There was a story a while back in one of the automotive trade journals, that hand cranked windows would soon be going the way of the crank starter. Everyone opts for powered windows, so most manufacturers were simply moving to make power windows standard.

And now, there are disturbing reports to traditionalists from two high profile auto manufacturers that might be pointing to the death of manual transmissions.

It started a few weeks ago when I read this, “The California is slated to be the last Ferrari available with a traditional manual transmission.” Not only do very few people order their Ferraris with old-style, traditional manual gearboxes any more, there is also a performance penalty to be paid. The Ferrari California equipped with the company’s semi-automatic gear change can do zero to 60 in the sub-four second range, and returns with a 17.8-mpg fuel economy rating. Opting for the traditional way to change cogs will net you a 4.2 second sprint to 60 MPH and your fuel economy will drop to 15.8 miles per gallon.

Manual transmissions are fitted to less than five percent of Lamborghini’s cars. Also added, somewhat defensively, that dual-clutch automated manuals with seven speeds or more, like Porsche’s PDK unit, are not automatically better than Lambo’s six-speed single-clutch unit. Reggiani says Lamborghini is opposed to unequal gear steps, and also makes note that the Porsche gearbox is roughly 50 pounds heavier than the Lambo six-speed.

Now, we could say that this is just a case of Lambo, yet again, copying their rivals up the road. But there is also no denying the fact that semi-automatic gearboxes offer both performance and fuel economy benefits, not to mention they also greatly enhance overall reliability.

Also, look no further than marque names such as Porsche, Audi, Volkswagen, Bugatti, Maserati, Mercedes, BMW and a host of others that all go with semi-auto boxes of one stripe or another.

So now the question becomes: Is the manual transmission dead? GotTransmissions.com @ 866-320-1182.
