Best place to get a BUILT tranny???

Im looking to get a built tranny for my 2005 DRW QC. Where should I look? What is the best. I plan on running an Edge Juice w/ Attitude possibly stacked with the Edge EZ. I also pull a 38ft fast boat every weekend during the summer. Thanks for the info.

25,000 HARD miles on my HTS tranny with zero problems.

Personally I would go with HTS hands down.

do a search on this...you will find lots of drama.

I suggest calling the companies first hand and talking to them about their trannies. From your phone call, you will get to know the mechanics of their tranny plus get an idea of their customer service first hand.

20,000 hard miles here on my DTT.....only regret is not going full billet the first time. I didn't have a billet flex plate and output shaft due to funds...and heres my flex plate now:





Where are you located? Finding a company close to you helps A LOT!

I have billet shafts... It all depends on what you want to do with your truck at what hp level. Marianne (owner of HTS) runs 13 flat with no billet shafts. My luck I would break a shaft the first time at the track.

I can say the same about my DTT builder/installer James Northum. He will build any tranny to YOUR needs for YOUR budget. He's been in the tranny business 35 years and knows his stuff. His customer service and guarantee on the work is outstanding. If your truck breaks and you call him wanting him to build you a tranny, he personally drops his tools and hooks up the gooseneck and will come pick you up. Out of state is nothing new for him either!

I have to give my vote in for NADP, I have one of their trannys, it is excellent, mine is full billet, with a suncoast flexplate. The service is excellent
