Rebuilt transmission / rebuilder in SF bay area?

[overheadview]

Hello - I'm looking for a transmission for a 73 bus, known good running, rebuilt, or a reference to a shop that will rebuild this one.

I put one in off the scrap pile already so not interested in another gamble.

German Transaxle is Plan B, there's got to be a usable transmission in the Bay area

Thank you

German transaxle is booked three to four months out. Get on their list NOW.

Eric at Transworks in El Cajon is where I would take it.

I second Eric from Transworks, he just built me a beefed up stock gearing trans for my 71 bus, couldn’t be happier. I live in New Jersey and I had it in a week and a half .

When Rick Long retired I bought some parts and tools from him. In conversation I asked who might be the best place in his opinion to send a trans now that he was retired. Eric was the answer. When I got my 091 apart, I needed a replacement mainshaft. No one had a new or used one. Eric did. He is the guy to send or take a transmission to. I know that San Diego seems like a long way to go, but you only want to do it once. There are other transmission folks but really Eric knows what he is doing.

Eric recently shipped a tranny to British Columbia for a samba member. I live 15 miles from his shop and if you need help dealing with him just let me know. Eric has built many for me and my customers.

78 stock Westy.
Transworks rebuilt mine a year or so ago. Works great & fast turnaround. Would recommend them.
