Can anyone recommend a place to get my gearbox and torque converter rebuilt?

Every time.

Don't know if it's one @Bemble rebuilds I've tagged him so he may respond.

Is it the box/torque convertor or something else like prop UJ's etc? Oil changed recently? Levels OK? Check the cheap stuff first.

DrTranny works wonders, two tubes.

I did the oil and filter a year or so back.
Ashcroft dont do the 6hp2 apparently.

I change my oil annually, box has been on its way out for 7 years, drtranny keeps her running.

Definitely NOT "Smart Reconditioning" of Sunbeam St. Wolverhampton.

Sounds like the voice of bad experience.

Nope, but I have read their "rave reviews".

It's only when I give it a bit of Welly with a trailer on. Can uj's make the car judder?

Yup!

I take it they will just appear to be loose/ have play when I inspect?

You will need to jack and support one side of the car so you can turn the props to check the uj`s

Is yours from one of the years that had a recall on front prop splines?

Good call,pity the op didn't provide full details of the car. perhaps the forum librarian can post photos, what do you think @brianp38dse

 

[brianp38dse]

Ok heres the pic of the front diff recall

 

[Russell 1]

I'll have a look. It's a 2005 V8 with the Jag engine.

 

[Saint.V8]

If it is tthe Jag V8 - I think the spline issue was resolved by then...

 

[Russell 1]

Has anyone rebuilt their own torque converter and gearbox?
Im tempted to buy secondhand, fit that, then rebuild my originals if its possible?
