Does anyone have any experience with, or can recommend, a good company for refurbished transmissions and is it likely they will offer a trade-in credit for my existing unit?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The transmission in my '99 996 needs some additional repairs and therefore I am considering getting a replacement refurbished transmission rather than continuing with the repairs. Does anyone have any experience with, or can recommend, a good company for refurbished transmissions and is it likely they will offer a trade-in credit for my existing unit?

POST 2Original post

I know vertex sells them but I cant comment on quality nor price.

POST 3Original post

I think Gbox also stocks 996 rebuild trannys which you can exchange. Gbox is an sponsor. This now becomes a freight cost game in terms of saving money. a few shops rebuilds them.

POST 4Original post

Also look in Excellence magazine, they have a lot of ads for trannys, rebuilds and new.GL

POST 5Original post

GBox does a nice on w/exchange for about $3,200.(+/-)....

POST 6Original post

In addition to Gbox there's also California Motorsports. Both of them are 996 experts.

That price from GBox (+/- as John states) includes shipping to and from. They make shipping very easy, and turned my transmission around in about 1 1/2 weeks from the time the shipping company picked it up until it was delivered back to us in Houston.
