    You're making some good money I hope. You need to open your own shop(IIRC, you work for a dealer). Is it a 6.0, 6.4 or 6.7? I assume a 6.7.

    Looks like a 6.4. I told Rob he needs to open his own shop. He's a good dude.

    yes I some leaks, torque converters and such. definitely manuals the problems with trannys is they are so laber intensive to overhaul, and you can offer the customer a better warranty with something like a jasper unit.90% of the time replacement is cheaper than overhaul.

    Yes sir. The procedure for becoming a preferred installer for Jasper isn't that time consuming and is well worth it. The networking alone was worth it for me. Good people and product.
