Transmission Prices

[Fiske]

For all you experts, mechanics, and plain old sho enthusiasts.. my transmission is going soon and I was wondering if anyone could give me a definate quote on a rebuild.. by local shops or by Ford or anyone. Unless I find a buyer or end up parting the car, I think it will have to been done sooner or later..

If you bring it up to us, we can give you a couple options:

1. We have a good used ATX out of a red '94 with just over 100K that was rebuilt about 10K ago, $1200 installed.

2. We can install a Ford rebuilt tranny with their 3/36 warranty for $2400 installed.

Turn-around time on the used tranny would be about 3 days after you drop it off. On the Ford unit, we'd need about a week advance notice to get it ordered and delivered.

If either interests you, get in touch: http://www.nesho.com

Is $1200 a flat rate?

Is $1200 a flat rate?

I guess you could call it that. Our flat labor rate for a tranny R&R is $600, and the price of the tranny is $600.

Thats not a bad deal at all!

wow thats a pretty good deal... 600 bucks for a atx R&R! wowzers

I would only buy a used rebuilt atx if you knew exactly how it was rebuilt and by who. I just got a bulletproof atx to handle FI for less than 2k. at $1,200, you are saving some, but you dont exactly know what you are getting. A stock rebuild with shift kit and everything for a step below FI would run about 1,500 i bet at the shop I went to. Think about it and do some more research!!!

you think that is good I know someone that only charges $275 for a MTX clutch job on a SHO, and $400 for R&R of a gen2 ATX tranny. Plus any broken/rusted/wornout parts that is.

I'd second having a full rebuild done by someone or a smaller shop that takes the time to really do it up right with all the know fixes out there. I know someone that puts in 20-30hours of time per ATX rebuild but thats just cause he overly meticulious about every specification for every part.

Being on the forum for as long as you have Im confused in why you would say that.

Or maybe its deeper than it seems
