No such thing as a brand new rebuilt.
For 2900.00 you won't get much of anything and it will not hold your tune.

Inglewood is the best that you are nearest to. Spend the extra and get something you will have zero worries about.

^^^Inglewood trans right above me.

Most drive half way or send their Allison transmissions across the country to Mike.
If you are lucky enough to live within 500 miles of Mike L and need trans work, you really should just go to him.

There should be no dilemma here. You live close enough to the best. The guy with the sheep :)

You only have to do it once. Especially if you're running a 100+ tune. See him and be done with it. 2900 is like a core price.

I drive to Cali from AZ a few times a year for trans work on my truck and friend's trucks. Worth the 6 hour drive for me.
