I have a 1991 Chevy P30 chassis with a short BlueBird bus body powered by a 6.2 diesel with a 4L80E transmission. It shifts ok with a little softness from 3rd to 4th and the lockout is hard to feel it is happening.
I've been convinced by the transmission shop in my town Santa Maria, CA [the one everybody reccomends] that it needs to be overhauled; estimated price $3,000 with a 12 month guarantee.
Unfortunately that is a bit out of my affordable cost range. Apparently stuff is a lot more expensive in California 93458 then in other places as I have located a place in AZ Phoenix Remanufactured Transmissions that will do it for $1425.
My question; is the local guy priced rate for the area and does it make sense to drive 560 miles 1 way to save $1500? |
