Subject: Transmission replacement?
IP: Logged

Message:
A friend of mine just had some transmission problems in his 2002 4.7 4x4 auto. The dealer said that he needed a new one and that he didn't recommend a rebuild. They want $5000 for the transmission and the labor.

Does anyone think that he should (a)have it rebuilt anyway (b)buy the stock replacement and have them put it in or (c)buy an aftermarket transmission and have that put in.

He looked and said he had some trouble finding an aftermarket transmission for his truck. So at very least if you know where you can get one that would be helpful. I am just getting opinions.

Thanks a lot,

2002 4.7 4x4 auto

He could build a tranny that won't break, will handle 600hp and it'd be about 2 grand less than what the dealers are trying to scalp your friend for.
