In my area the transmission shops can and usually do a diagnostic for free or a small fee , this testing will give you a more accurate estimate as to the extent of repairs required...
the mileage, history of vehicle use, and condition of vehicle is a factor I would use as to , the repair or get another scrap yard transmission..
4.3 L engine lacks the proper power to use the truck as a work vehicle, this lack of power causes the transmission to run hotter...the use of an external trans cooler is a must do modification..
