If you are able to remove and reinstall your 4L60E transmission but do not want to take on the job of rebuilding it, you have come to the right place. I only offer the transmission rebuild service. No transmission removal or installation service is offered. Please be sure to bring the torque converter with the transmission to avoid paying a substantial core charge. It also helps to eliminate any confusion obtaining the correct replacement converter. The cost for my basic rebuild service as described on the home page is $995. I do offer discounts so check back often and also check my inventory.
No discounts at this time - off season, see note at the bottom of this page.
My basic rebuild service consists of the transmission being disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and reassembled with all new gaskets, bushings, seals, clutch steel and friction discs, fluid filters, the band, a remanufactured torque converter, and 12-quarts of synthetic transmission fluid. The transmission fluid may be supplied in gallon or quart containers. My basic rebuild service may be all that is necessary for a working transmission with 150,000 miles or less that is just beginning to have problems. Lower mileage transmissions with minor problems can cost less depending on the condition of the components. Higher mileage transmissions with more wear and damage will naturally cost more. Some of the more common problems with higher mileage or overworked transmissions are listed below. To rebuild these transmissions my estimate is $1395.
Electrical components and other parts are only replaced if they do not pass inspection. This keeps the cost down since you are only paying for what is needed. The decision is always yours if you would prefer to replace components that are still in good working condition. Just let me know what you would like done. I use new, brand name, quality components from the following companies: ACDelco, BorgWarner, Fel-Pro, Filtran, General Motors, Precision International, Raybestos, Rostra, Sonnax, Superior, Toledo, and TransGo. Most of the replacement components are upgraded and improved over the original part. I do not participate in cheap transmission rebuilds by using inferior components and taking short cuts. A quality transmission rebuild is not going to be cheap no matter who does it. If you find an offer for substantially less than mine you can be assured that low quality parts and short cut procedures will be used. That low cost transmission rebuild will eventually end up costing you much more. I hope all of this helps to explain what my rebuild service consists of. Please contact me with any questions.
Rebuild Time and Payment Procedure
Once work has begun on your transmission it normally takes 2-weeks (or less) to complete the process and have your transmission ready for pick-up. After the disassembly and inspection of your transmission I will email your invoice. Seventy percent (70%) of the invoice will need to be paid before work can continue. The remaining balance is due before picking up your transmission. Cash or online payment through PayPal or Zelle are accepted forms of payment.
My off season (November through April) can add considerable time to your transmission rebuild because of the weather and my work schedule. Please be able to wait up to 6-weeks during these months. My work area is not heated and my work days are much shorter.
