Contact us through the CONTACT US page, or a Marketplace ad to discuss your needs and timeframe. Remember to include Year, Model, Engine, any injector modifications, tire size and axle ratio (if known) and 2wd/4wd details in your email to get our conversation going. We try to keep Daily/Tow units in popular configurations in stock, but availability varies.
We split time between Southeastern PA and Northern DE, and are available by appointment almost anytime. We do not ship, and probably never will, so all sales are conducted in our area, with rare exceptions.
We do not remove or install transmissions at this time. Therefore, our transaction model is a straight-up swap.
Your transmission core must be a rebuildable "like" core. That means, no broken, cracked or weld-repaired cases, damaged/missing extension housings, etc. Everything you bring us must be rebuildable, and it must have come from behind the same engine we are providing a rebuilt unit for (we will not give you a diesel unit in exchange for a gasoline core). Cores are required at time of sale as we do not offer loans.
Final inspection will occur in person. To get a good headstart preparing your core for the exchange, use this video for guidance.
While most customers install their new units within a few days of purchase, we know that some project trucks can take a bit longer. For the new units that might wind up sitting a while before install, we can wrap them in plastic wrap to help keep foreign matter and moisture out of them. ATF absorbs moisture, so it is very important to keep moisture out of the transmission!

Your TC core must be a rebuildable "like" core. That means, no broken internals or exterior damage. Because of the nature of the TC, any broken internals (such as thrust bearings or turbine hub rivets) will most likely have destroyed the entire inner workings once they come loose and rattle around inside.
There will be a charge for a non-rebuildable core. The TC core must have come from behind the same engine we are providing a rebuilt unit for, unless we have already discussed a highly customized torque converter for your application.
Click the button for a video I made to help explain the different torque converters and how to tell them apart.
In the event your core is missing expected parts (as shown to me in the pictures I request), or certain parts are found to be broken and/or non-rebuildable upon inspection, or if you simply just need to buy some parts with your new transmission, the following prices will be charged:
Diesel Case non-PTO (cracked, broken, or damaged in any way) $900
Gasoline Case non-PTO (cracked, broken, or damaged in any way) $300
Broken PTO cases will not be accepted for any amount of money $----
If there appears to be too many helicoils in the case, I will probably refuse the core altogether.
Torque Converter (loose parts inside, inoperable turbine hub, non-rebuildable) $200
Pump or extension housing $200
Center shaft, output shaft or Input shaft $100
Lower dipstick tube, shift bracket or banjo bolts $40
Keep in mind that none of this should be a surprise when we meet, and that the time to discover these added costs should be when you send me the pictures I request, not when we meet for the sale. Be honest about the condition of your core, it will save a lot of time and hassle.
