new tranny

My tranny on my '91 chevy truck (350 w/700r4 tranny) is leaking from the front input shaft area, and also making a kinda grinding noise when I let off the pedal(sounds like its coming from inside the tranny) , and now when I push on the pedal slightly. also this tranny has been rebuild twice..the last one bout 3.5 years a go..is this problem fixable or should I just get a new one...Where is a good place to get a new one..my buddy said the dealership, cuz they warranty...thx for ur replies.

The gm warranty had gotten much better in the last few years and the difference in price is not great. The only down fall to buying a reman from the dealer is you cannot have it built to your specs. If you are using the truck to pull or off-roading at all I would recomend having one built, with a shift kit, better clutches and steels, and corvette servos. If it is just a daily driver then the gm reman, I think will be a better option.

Is everything remanufactored or could I still get one brand spank'n new??..
well this is my daily driver and my off road/pulling truck..
...how do I go about getting one built for my truck..do I just take it to a 4x4 place..? ..thx again for ur replies.

If you want better,go with a Jasper and Jasper is cheaper than GM on price of the transmission.Jasper does improvements by their R&D people.Their warranty is better and you can take it to any place that is a Jasper dealer for warranty work with no problems.Jasper even pays for the labor if there is any warranty work

I agree with what everyone else said, get one built. The 700R4 is not that good of a trans when it comes to taking abuse stock, they overheat way too fast. I have had bad expierences with that same trans in the past on my full size jimmy. After getting one built with better clutches, a shift kit, and an external cooler i did not have problems again, well except for breaking the 4:10 gears because the shift kit would hit so hard in second under WOT that it would chirp the 33 12.50's on dry pavement lol

Any transmission shop should be able to build the tranny any way that you want.
