The A343F transmission has proven quite reliable. As said, there was a batch of them sometime in '00 and maybe even '01 that had some parts that were out of tolerance. If you want to save some money, throw in a used 98,99 or 02 transmission with known mileage for $1000-1500 plus labor. Sure, it's riskier than a rebuilt but so is buying a used car. People are going 250k+ miles on these trannies.
