Sounds like some of the **** I went though on steroids. My builder would take about a week per swap. He finally told me that he couldn't afford to keep rebuilding them under warranty, and gave me all my $$ back. I took the broken trans to him and dropped it off and he handed me a check. I hope something like that works out for you too...

TELL HIM TO REFUND YOUR DAMN MONEY!!! THAT ******* LONG!!! to build a tranny? haha id be askin for a rental car or some ****. And for 2000? ALL hard parts fora tranny can be had for around 600-800 at the most, that your average builder can get their hands on.

Id be chewin some *** and 2000 is rediculous. I paid 975 for a 4l60e rebuild with all hard parts! He is warranting my 5.3l with a 125 shot and The Wood Haulers 408 both exact same 4l65e's for 6 months for 975!!! He is in searcy arkansas. If you want more info on him let me know!

Can you PM me the contact info on this or post up? Sounds like a good deal to me and I am wanting to get my tranny beefed up.

Thanks

I would put pressure on them, don't let them take advantage of you. If I was in your position I would have lost my temper within the first few days, much less several months....
