Let me tell you you’re about to be really upset because this customer has paid good money twice to have is transmission rebuilt and there is nothing built about this transmission. It’s been out twice and still has the factory convertor. Transfer case tear down coming soon don’t want to miss this. I hope everyone enjoys thanks for watching. 👍🏼❤️🙏🏼

Not defending the " other shop " as they seem to be a repeat offenders,, but in my 40 years of professional wrenching, if anybody can find a weak / defective product / part - it'll be a farmer. Many years ago an older farmer told me " you ain't working hard enough if ya ain't breaking something " 🤔

As someone whose been burned by transmission shops (multiple times) this is so refreshing to see a shop that knows their craft thoroughly and wants the customer to be satisfied with what they pay for. As a side note, it's more common than you think (unfortunately) for automotive shops to not do the work they told you they did but still charge you for it.

Last experience with a transmission shop was with AAMCCO Transmission shop here in Sarasota Florida. On a 2009 Chevy Malibu They charged me $900 just to inspect it. Which the question was. "Will you give us permission to take it apart and inspect it"? Never mentioned the charge. Came back saying it was the 3rd and 4th gears slipping. He wanted to charge me 3k to fix it. I ended up paying the $900. After some youtube videos I figured out it was the solenoids. The part is about $200. The dishonesty is brutal out there. Glad to see mechanics like yourself make an honest living.

To me that looks like a junkyard transmission. I remember back when I was quarter miling and I had a gentleman build a transmission for me he guaranteed it for life no matter what he also was a fierce competitor in quarter miling he was Semi-Pro and owned his own transmission shop. I can tell you the first transmission he put together for me was not so good, the first time out it blue right at the start line. But you know what he took and loaded my car on his trailer left his car there and took it to the shop a week later I had another new transmission no charge of course. Let me tell you that transmission that he put together held up for three grueling years then I sold the car so I don't know how long it lasted after that but he did a fantastic job. That transmission that you're working on right now looks like the exact one that is in my 96 Silverado, and I can tell you I have not had any issues with that transmission. Although it is just a two-wheel drive. Great video guys really informative keep it up.
