Have a 77 Bronco looking to have the transmission rebuilt. Any recommendations. Was told to stay away from Cottman?

I was very happy with a manual transmission rebuilt from Trans Medics.

Rose and sons downtown

What Ragged said. If it's an automatic.

Manuals are far easier. I've done probably close to a dozen.

would rose and sons do any mods to it ?

I have a 150k AOD that's gonna need some work soon... but i'd like it to hold up to towing a little better.

If it is a mod that will improve driveability, longevity, etc than not only is a good transmission shop going to be interested in doing it, they will probably do it if you ask them to or not.

Mods usually are at risk for lesser of a warranty. I don't build transmissions so I could be wrong

rose gets a big thumbs down in my book, twice. Once for transmission replacement, once for diagnoses.

griffin did ok, but only experience is with transmission and axle service.

7/1/2013 8:54:04 PM

Damn. Sorry to hear that.

7/2/2013 7:29:09 PM

thanks for the suggestions. Have heard good things from someone else about Griffins

Anybody have experience with Wickers Garage?

Looking to put an AOD in the t-bird

Yeah, he's decided to shut it down and join ECGS

3/9/2016 6:39:49 AM

So what's the best remaining shop in this area?

3/9/2016 8:46:51 AM

I know Griffin's is still around and I still give them the nod.
