I found a 2001 f250 extcab powerstroke 2wd 157k for sale with a bad transmission for like $6000 How much would I have into rebuilding the trans and do youi think its worth it? Also what is a good shop I could take it to any help is apreciated

 

Just my 2 cents worth...that seems like an awful lot for a truck that is 8 model years old with 157k and no tranny. You might be better off considering a remanufactured crate tranny instead of having the current one rebuilt...unless you can find a good tranny man to do it cheap. A crate tranny would also carry a warranty from the manufacturer.

 

who sells crate trannys

 

I got one from AAmco. It was $4300.00 . 3year 50,000 mile warranty

 

Mystic, what's you're first name?

And have you joined the chapter??????

 

My name is Bud I have not joined since I don't own a truck yet I'm trying though

 

Thats ok bud, We will help you find one man...click on the link below and join us in the de chapter......

 

Bud thats alot of miles for that year. Now even if it's all hgwy miles. What did he do to fry the tranny? I would look into an autowrecker for a tranny. I'm sure you can find one with a whole lot less miles on it. JMO.

Good luck with what you decide.

 

Im not sure what killed the tranny isn't that a common problem with that year

 

so you going to join up or what man....LOL

 

If it was a Dodge, I'd say yes.

EDIT
Why don't you jump up to that year and make forum and re ask your question.
There are some good people up there who know their stuff.

 

I just sent a request for membership does anyone know of a good shop I could call in the southern DE area thanks

 

Hey Bud, send a PM to Ryan, DAFBFD58, he probably can give you some help on this matter.

Where do you live?
