Hi Guys,
When I first got my old 97 Powerstroke I began hearing about Brian's truck shop in Arkansas when ever there was a transmission discussion going on . That old truck was a manual so I didn't think to much about it. Fast forward a handful of years and i upgraded to my current 2002 F-250 auto trans and decided on day 1 when it needed a trans i would get a BTS . 4 years later that time has come , I bought the truck with 115K and it now has 183K and the trans is ready to come out. I made an appointment at Brian's back in July and the quickest he could do was September 27 so I agreed. It has not been fun being without my truck since July but the wait will be worth it. This Monday I'm having a buddy from work haul me out to lead Hill AR . I live North of Memphis so it's gonna be around 5 hrs or so. The price I'm told will be Approx. 6K for the trans removal, build, reinstallation, Fluid and a new 6.0 cooler . Its Alot of money but as you all know its well worth it. I also plan on keeping the truck for a long time. Any recommendations while I'm out that way ?
Pic of the truck its going in below.
