So, the syncros in my gear box are on their way out. I know of several VW/Porsche specific shops in the Detroit area, as well as pure trans outfits, but are there any that have a particularly good reputation for rebuilding these transaxles?
I should include Grand Rapids in that area as the two hour drive is easy peasy.

Many thanks...

Grand Rapids. Original Customs. McMark here on the board. I don't think you'd find many who wouldn't recommend him. He's working on one of my transmissions right now (915).

Thanks, Dodger. I suspected he may get a few votes. Hence my specific inclusion of GR.

He was a big loss to us in Northern California. He's done restorations on cars as far away as New Zealand. In fact, my car will go there soon.

I could do it, US dollar goes farther in Canada, but I'm a good 5 hours from Detroit. smile.gif

There's always Dr Evil in Washington Courthouse Ohio. You can ship it to him. He did mine good job all around

I'm in Metro Detroit and I will only take my car to McMark. If you are considering someone in metro Detroit I will give you my opinion via PM
