Who rebuilds 4-speeds?
« on: May 13, 2007 - 03:22:37 PM »
I have a manual 4-speed that I'm thinking of having rebuilt. Are there any of you out there in Mopar world that would consider taking on such a project and appr. what might I be looking at for cost. I know you don't really know what needs replacing until you tear into it but a ball park figure is all I need. My other option of course is rebuilding it myself. I've done engine rebuilds before and the typical backyard repairs but have always been somewhat intimidated by trannys.

There are usually guys locally to do it. But you have to find them. Myself and another do them, plus about 10 shops around here. I use Passon's parts. He's a great guy to deal with, and sell good product. What it costs depends on what you need. The last correctly done one I did was $1300 in parts alone, because it had 179000 miles and was flat worn out. If yo uneed gears or hard parts, it gets pricey. Most "rebuilds" are nothing more than wear parts replacements. That's ok if yours was good to begin with..But if it was good...why rebuild it? To rebuild means replace the shot gears and make new again. That is what costs a lot. A real good deal are the $800 rebuilts by Passon. Not numbers matching, but they work great. I think Brewers has something like that too. Brewers I have not heard any bad about. Just never used them myself.

Brewers is good to deal with also , they do not make as many parts as Passon but they have a lot of stuff & know what they are doing
