David,
Thank you for bringing your F-150 in and letting us take a look. Transmission work is one of those repairs where the details in the estimate matter — we laid everything out so there are no surprises.
This estimate covers the complete rebuild we discussed: full teardown and inspection, OEM-equivalent clutch and seal rebuild kit, torque converter replacement, transmission fluid flush, all labor, and a final road test. The number you see is the number you pay. If we open the unit and find damage that wasn't visible on the outside, we photograph it and call you before anything additional proceeds.
• BAR licensed shop and ASE-certified technicians on every job • 2-year / 24,000-mile warranty on all transmission work — one of the strongest guarantees in the industry • Free loaner vehicle available for your drop-off • Nothing starts without your written approval — estimate is binding
Looking forward to working with you, Mike Tran (951) 555-0187
If you are getting multiple quotes — and you should —
For a transmission rebuild, the most common scope gaps are the torque converter (often not included in advertised rebuild prices), the quality of the rebuild kit (OEM versus aftermarket), whether the R&R labor — removing and reinstalling the transmission — is baked into the price or charged separately, and what the warranty actually covers and for how long.
We price what we promise, and we promise what we price. If another bid comes in significantly lower, ask them to match our scope line by line — the difference usually becomes clear quickly.
| # | Item | Amount |
|---|---|---|

| 2 | Full rebuild kit (OEM-equivalent clutches, bands, seals) | $890.00 |
| 3 | Torque converter replacement | $420.00 |
| 4 | Transmission fluid & filter (full flush) | $140.00 |
| 5 | Rebuild labor (18-20 hours) | $1,200.00 |

Final payment is due only after you have inspected all completed work and given your approval.
