Tranny repair shop recommendation needed - Phoenix area

Well no question in my mind you've done the right thing. Just like a member said taking it out and putting it back in is the hard part. You'll find once you've went through it it was easier than falling out of bed...
@70aarcuda generally has video copies of rebuilding the transmission that if asked nicely will send you one....
When I did my first 904 which basically is the same transmission just smaller and same valve body I watched a few youboob videos and when at it. My biggest takeaway was if you have a transmission supply place close by use that for buying your rebuild kit / 1 on the internet as the kits are generic and can be missing a seal or something and if you have a place you can go and just get another piece instead of sending for it it will save headaches. Buy a massive jar of Vaseline LOL.. a couple quarts of transmission fluid to soak the clutch is in... And while you're at it definitely install a transgo two shift kit.. the shift kit won't make the gears bang hard just click exactly like you want them and downshift exactly as you imagine you want it to be... I've yet to talk a remember through building their own transmission and have them regret it..
