J. Allen Ford - Transmission Technician | $30-$55/hourKnow your way around a 10R80? We want to talk to you. Built your transmission skills on another brand? We still want to talk to you.Whether you're chasing down a harsh shift on an F-150, diagnosing a slipping 10R140 in a Super Duty that tows for a living, tearing down a valve body, or sorting out a transfer case that's got a customer stuck in two-wheel drive, transmissions are your world. Ford experience gets you a head start here, but strong transmission techs from other makes are welcome too. If you've got the skills and the drive, we'll help you get up to speed on Ford.
We run an honest shop, and we're building a team of honest, skilled technicians who take pride in doing the job right the first time. Here, top techs aren't just "the guys in the back." You're the backbone of this dealership, and we treat you that way.
