Tranny Question...

Don't know if this should be here or not, but here goes.

My shop has a 1993 Ford Super Duty car Hauler. Has a 460 EFI, and and automatic overdrive trans. It has the biggest trans cooler that we could find to put on it, and were running Amco Mercon V Synthetic fluid.

Problem I have is the trans has lost 2nd gear, and jumps in and out of OverDrive now. Was wondering if anyone can give me some info for a reputable place to get a rebuilt, remanufacured, or new trans.

This will be the 2nd time for putting a trans in this, not the funnest thing in the world, so would like this to be the last time, if possible.

Thanks for any help.

I'm from Central Illinois

Have you tried a Ford dealer?

I know there are some complaints about the service at some, but I don't think there have been any complaints about dealers in IL.

How many miles were on your 1st rebuild and was it a Ford replacement tranny or rebuilt locally?
