Anyone know the average cost of having the clutches rebuilt in my transmission
That's a big job jrobe44. Depending on how much you can do yourself (remove & refit the transmission?) & how thoroughly you want the job done, there is about 120 - 150 hrs of labour for a full job - removal/repair/refit + parts of course...... costs more than what the ol girl is worth What makes you think it needs doing?
Well jus curiosity of the price but torque converter loses pressure when i shift into gear but only after couple hours of running but I'm gonna do a flow meter check to find out for sure. But torque converter loses pressure and temp rises on it but when I shift to neutral it regains full pressure and after couple minutes of idling temp returns to about 190. I jus rebuilt motor with only bout 15hrs of run time on it with a new charge pump also. And this was going on before the rebuild also but a had a bad liner so that's why I jus went ahead and rebuilt the entire motor.
Last 450 Case trans we did was in Oct. Complete disassembly and rebuild. Only took a total of 48 hrs start to finish. Total job cost including parts, $3700. Pictures posted on our Facebook page under the name PD Mechanical.
Thanks
Sorry for the late response on this as I seemed to have missed PD Mech Steve's reply here. Steve - are you saying a FULL rebuild was done for $3700. I cannot even get the parts for that price. The price you have quoted, does not even cover my labour rate at 48hrs. I looked at the facebook pictures, & I saw pics of the transmission removed & repairs/machining to a final drive housing. Are you sure about the info, a FULL rebuild.. & the price quoted here? Just wanted to clarify this info for jrobe44 & any others refering to this thread in the future. - I wouldn't want to tear into a transmission overhaul with a 'price' in mind & then getting a rude shock when reality hits.
I talked to a CASE dealer is shreveport la and they also said a rebuild would cost around $4000.i would assume this is not any gears or anything jus the clutchs
