To rebuild a transmission the following steps should be undertaken:

Disassembly: Here, the mechanic is required to tear down the transmission completely and remove the soft parts from the transmission. The disassembling process is very delicate and should be carefully done so that only the affected soft parts are discarded. If poorly done, you may end up discarding the hard parts that do not need to be replaced.

Cleaning: This is normally done on the hard parts that may be used in the re-assembly. Thorough cleaning is done on these parts to remove dust, grease, and any debris that might have infiltrated into the system.

Inspection: After disassembling the transmission and cleaning of the necessary parts, the mechanic does an overall check to affirm the re-use of the parts that have not been damaged.

Assembly: The transmission is now put back together and the mechanic has added any new updates to modify the transmission as requested by the customer.

The following steps are necessary for an effective transmission rebuild process:

Removal: During this juncture, the mechanic strives to remove the transmission without causing any collateral damage to other non-transmission parts. They pay close attention when removing the transmission because failure to do so can result in a poorly done job.

Inspection: Just like in transmission rebuild, the technician should inspect every item related to the transmission. Such items may or may not include:

Transfer Case: Check to determine if the seals or gaskets are damaged.
Control cables: Ensure that the throttle pressure is not broken. Also make sure that the shift cables are in the right condition.
Main Engine Rear Oil Seal: Confirm its condition to determine whether it is leaking or not. Leaking seals should be changed.
Drive Shaft: Inspect to ensure that the u-joints are in the correct shape. Also ensure that the yoke is not worn-out.
Transmission Mounts: Check to ensure that the mounts are not broken.

After examining all items related to the Transmission,

Cleaning of the Transmission Cooler: Before installing the rebuilt transmission, the technician should clean the automatic transmission cooler. This ensures that the debris that may be present is removed to avoid any harm of the newly rebuilt transmission.

Reinstallation of the transmission: This step will include adding specific fluid to the transmission. The fixed transmission parts are put together and then a thorough inspection is done to ensure that they are properly fixed. A final quick test drive is performed and any further adjustments are done at this point.

Quality Assurance Check: This is the final step which involves checking for missing or loose bolts, correct fluid level, fluid leaks, and making sure that electrical harnesses are properly fastened. A final check is performed on the vehicles computer to ensure that there is proper co-ordination.

Sometimes a customer is at cross-roads on whether to go for transmission replacement or transmission rebuild. The decision of choosing between the two options lies on the damage that has been caused to the transmission. If there is too much damage, a technician may recommend a total replacement which is a very costly process.

Transmission rebuild is recommended when a minimal number of parts need to be fixed to bring transmission back to normal. It is a cost friendly route as long as you find the best transmission mechanic to rightfully identify the parts that need to be fixed. This means that the parts that are in good condition will be left with a little maintenance performed on them, and the bad will be replaced.

Why Transmission Rebuild is the best option

In most circumstances, a transmission rebuild vs replace is normally the most preferred option. It involves replacing parts that have failed and reusing the parts that have not failed. You will need to pick the best transmission rebuild shop to have this done correctly.

Testimonials

An excellent job!

“I was in the unfortunate circumstance of needing a transmission rebuild for my car. A-Affordable Transmissions was able to complete the job in half the time and half the price that other shops had quoted me. Dave was clear & straightforward in describing the different rebuild options, and was very friendly to work with. He even met with me after hours to return my vehicle since it was finished a little later than expected. Now my Jeep is running great again and I highly recommend A-Affordable Transmissions! Thanks for an excellent job!”

Eugene Metschke

Good attitude and friendliness

“Credit all the workers for their friendliness and expertise in their jobs. Moreover, I honor the center’s manager Dave, whom I have yet to see in any manner other than friendly, personable and very knowledgeable in his work. I first took my car to their shop a year ago. Took it back recently and expected a huge bill. However, Dave checked it out and fixed the problem at no charge. He also took a step further and personally brought it to my house when completed. I highly recommend this Transmission site for more than just needed repairs done right and timely; but with the good attitude and friendliness of the workers. Hence, I rate A-Affordable with five stars.”
