My transmission needs a rebuild, what have y'all paid in the past to have an E40D rebuilt, I dropped it off to my uncle who owns a transmission shop, and he won't give me a price he just said not to worry a about it, but I want to give him a fair amount. Thanks

kit usually cost 400.00 or more the rest is labor and hard parts if any... most places charge 1,800.00-2,000.00 for a complete rebuild.

and thats if they do it right...

Is there any way to beef up the trans? I'll be getting mine rebuilt eventually and would like to get it a little hardier for towing

Overdrive automatics are expensive to have rebuilt. Minimum $1200, that's what I paid 10 years ago. GM tranny though.

Yea that's what my uncle was telling me, he said that particular transmission wasn't cheap to rebuild but be wouldn't tell me exactly how much money

Why don't you help out at the shop and see if the rebuilder will let you help. It would be a good learning experience and show your uncle you're not looking for a free ride.

I leave tomorrow to head to Florida to get married and then Jamaca for a week, and when I get back we are taking a motorcycle trip to Houston, and he wants to load down my truck and his trailer since it pulls with the best mpg, and this is my wedding gift.

yeppers.. GMs are cheaper to rebuild be even today it is cheaper for me to buy a 700R4 new with the 40+ updates than it is to get mine rebuilt locally...
