The shop (L&R Transmission in Clemmons, NC for any locals on here) is very reputable, and proposed cleaning/painting the housing, replace all seals, bearings, etc. I honestly don’t remember the exact price, I last talked to them in May. It was in that ballpark. I’ll still be on the hook for brakes, but everything else will be new. I think I’m still leaning towards having the 12 bolt rebuilt, but you look at the cost and start wondering if buying all new wouldn’t be better.
okay yea l&r transmission is a very good shop they just did the transmission in my brothers 2005 toyota avlaon they have the best warranty on transmissions 3 years or 50k
