Why Choose Us

Getting Your Gearbox Right the First Time

Heavy-duty transmissions are complex, and an incorrect diagnosis can lead to expensive parts you didn't need. Our ASE certified mechanics road test, scan, and inspect your transmission to find exactly where the problem starts. We work on both manual and automated manual transmissions found in today's semi-trucks. With 25 years of drivetrain experience and a shop that's open 24/7, we keep your truck's downtime as short as possible.

What We Offer

Complete Transmission Care for Heavy-Duty Trucks

Some transmission problems can be solved with an adjustment or a seal replacement, while others require a full rebuild. We explain your options clearly so you can make the best decision for your truck and budget. Here's what our transmission service covers:

Transmission Repair and Rebuild By I-55 Truck and Trailer Repair
  • Transmission Diagnostics: We combine road testing, fault code scanning, and hands-on inspection to identify the root cause. This helps us recommend the right repair instead of guessing.

  • Manual Transmission Repair: Worn synchronizers, gears, and shift forks can cause grinding and popping out of gear. We repair or replace damaged components to restore smooth, reliable shifting.

  • Automated Manual Transmission Service: Automated transmissions rely on sensors, actuators, and software to shift correctly. We diagnose electronic faults, replace failed parts, and recalibrate the system after repairs.

  • Complete Transmission Rebuilds: When internal wear is extensive, we fully disassemble and rebuild the transmission with new bearings, seals, and worn parts. A quality rebuild restores performance at a lower cost than a new unit.

  • Transmission Removal and Replacement: If a rebuild isn't the best option, we can remove and install a replacement transmission. We make sure everything is connected, adjusted, and tested before you leave.

  • Seal and Leak Repair: Leaking transmission fluid can lead to low levels, overheating, and internal damage. We locate the leak and replace worn seals and gaskets to stop it.

  • Shifter and Linkage Repair: Loose or worn shifter components make it hard to find the right gear. We repair shift towers, linkages, and air shift controls to restore precise shifting.

  • Transmission Fluid Service: Old or contaminated fluid speeds up wear on gears and bearings. We drain, inspect, and refill with the correct lubricant to protect your transmission.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signs of a failing truck transmission?

Common signs include grinding or difficulty shifting, slipping out of gear, unusual whining or clunking noises, fluid leaks, and a burning smell. On automated transmissions, warning lights and fault codes are often the first clue.

Should I repair or rebuild my transmission?

It depends on the extent of the damage. Isolated problems can often be repaired, while widespread internal wear usually makes a rebuild the smarter long-term choice. We'll explain both options after inspection.

How long does a truck transmission rebuild take?

Most rebuilds take a few days, depending on the transmission model and parts availability. We'll give you a timeline before any work begins and keep you updated along the way.

Do you repair automated manual transmissions?

Yes. We diagnose and repair automated manual transmissions, including electronic controls, actuators, and calibration after service.
