[XK8 Transmission] A drum Issue - Rebuilt?
My XK8 came up with the A-drum issue, based on my searching. So questions?
I can pull it myself, and reinstall as I have a lift in my detail shop.
I found this place for decent price
aafloridadiscount : BMW AND JAGUAR ZF5HP24 REBUILT TRANSMISSIONS
Good, bad indifferent, is there a better place/price?
Quality of the rebuild is more important to me, than the $$$$. I do not want to buy a used tranny unless it has been rebuilt with the latest parts that solves the issues with the ZF5HP24.
I have no issues replacing parts, but time is of the essence, as my shop is incredibly busy and I don't have a lot of time to do a rebuild/replacement of parts.
Thoughts

If I just came upon that website, there is NO WAY I would buy anything from it... but I did a quick google search and it looks as though they are legit and in the Tampa area (and hopefully they are better at rebuilding transmissions than they are at websites).
I don't know about pricing, but personally I would look for someone closer to you in case you have any issues...

Gus recommended this company to me a while back and if I were doing the replace myself, I would have used them - this is what they quoted me at the time:
Our price is $2295.00 plus $700 core deposit and freight ($400 to SC and return). Transmission comes with torque converter, is full of OE oil, and dyno tested. Warranty is one year unlimited miles. We would need about a week before we could ship it.
