Since when does Shepherd charge 3G's on a trans. Dont try to save $ when it comes to your transmission. Matt and jeff both got their transmissions from Shepherd and couldn't be happier. I remember them paying around 2G's or so. I could be wrong though.

usually you get what you pay for... will the turbo trix tranny hold up? maybe ... but i'd rather have the peace of mind and know that it will... thats why i went with Shep...

You're damn straight. Shep's trannies are run in the best and fastest DSM's in the country. What you're doing sounds no better than tranny shopping on the Home Shopping Network hosted by Bob Saget.

My Shepherd tranny was $1,463. Where did you get $3,000 from?

And mine built to the teeth was under $2k. Shepherd is proven and proven again. It really isn't worth the uncertainty to find out as far as I see it.

You knew what we were going to say, then we said it. The question is, will you listen?



It's running again shitheads.

Turbo Trix merged with BM Trannies from my understanding and yes alot of people use their trannies....just not sure how well they hold up.

I believe George needs a whole tranny which means he will spend around the 3k mark since he has no core. I know you can get a TRE tranny for 3k and shep charges 3195 w/o a core.

You don't need the extra pedal. Just swap it out for an A/T!(*ducks) emoji

I know people that have broken 3 BM trannies, then switched to a shep and it didn't break. If/when it comes time for a tranny rebuild it will go to shep.
