Good day all,
With a US dollar costing a tidy $1.32 Canadian, an already expensive transmission rebuild becomes even more pricey! I'm familiar with the popular rebuilders from the states. I'm just wondering if anyone has had positive results with any Canadian rebuilders.
Thanks
Steve

I know that Jeff ( http://www.jeffsoldvolkshome.com/ ) rebuilds for his diesel conversions, give him a call at (902)-273-2208 between 7am and 5pm Monday to Thusday and 7am to 1pm on Friday, Atlantic Standard Time.

Had mine done locally in 2000 by Victoria Transmission. They also did my differential. No complaints. Check out your local shops.

If it's for your Syncro, I'm not sure I would trust any but the Big Three...

Well, thanks for the replies. Guess I'll just take it to Canadian Tire. Very Happy
