Guys, my Trans from O’ Reilly’s auto parts has done me good. They rebuild them by replacing many parts, and not just the parts that are bad. The mom and pop Transmission shops [tend to replace only the parts that are bad]. Believe me, been there and had that happen to me with these sorry 4L60e Transmissions. So, in the long run do it right or your going to spend more money like me.

Unless I have plenty of references, I don't trust any transmission shop. A very few of the rebuild factories turn out good work, and I'll assume O'Reilly is using one of those. GMCTRUCKS, I'm glad you had a good experience with their transmissions. I'll try building my own.

I had a mom n pop race shop rebuild my 4L60E into a stage 3 Heavy Duty rated for 600HP. they have also been in business building transmissions and race cars since before color photography and have 1000's of pics of their work all over their office and shop. they were also born into it and it has always been family owned and operated.

a company's reputation is everything and in today's world is easily learned.

direct from google....

O'Reilly Auto Parts carries transmission systems and components from established brands. Check out our selection of Power Torque transmissions and transmission parts from Pioneer Inc. We also carry transmission seals from Master Pro and National to help complete your transmission repair.

I cant find a bbb review for power torque transmissions but I can find a bbb review for Power Torque Engines and it's a 1/5, sounds like it would be a 0/5 if it was an option.

I only spent 5 mins of research...

The shop that I use, when I came across them, the owner had showed me pictures of the drag cars he built 30+ years ago. If I didn't get a chance to talk to him and see those, I probably wouldn't have used them multiple times know.

I have had my share of bad 4L60e Transmision’s like once I was going down to see my dad and my Trans was doing so good well I stopped on the half way mark of my trip to buy a soda pop and I put my truck in drive and it would only go into drive so I drove the rest of my trip slower it reminded me of my older rides I had with no overdrive oh it was taking off in third from a red light as well but my 5.7 did it.
