Transmission Specialists in Seattle Area?

[jltemlock]

Hi Everyone:

I'm pretty sure that one (or many) of the transmission seals have gone bad on my 93 FJ 80. After cranking up the engine for about 2-3 minutes transmission fluid begins leaking pretty heavily out of the weep holes in the bellhouse. However, dropping the transmission to get a look at the seals is definitely beyond my capabilities as a novice tinkerer.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good mechanic and/or transmission specialists in the Seattle, WA area that I should consider for taking a look/replacing the seals.

Thanks in advance

Give Torfab a call. I believe they're just south of Everett. If you Google it, they'll pop-up.

if you already dropped the trans why not just put in the pump seal, its easy enough and maybe a 1/2 after dropping the trans. just pop the seal out and inatall a new one, just put it in straight and tap around the seal so goes in evenly. you have nothing to loose and everything to gain by replacing the seal
