Should I rebuild my trans before we take trailer out west ??

Need some opinions, because I am torn. Our 2000 suburban has been towing our passport for a while now, and we now have 200,000 miles on a trans that has not been rebuilt. I am thinking of just rebuild...

Maybe it is just me, but I have had 3 transmissions " rebuilt " ( in suvs )and all have been problems. Never again unless I personally knew the person doing it and really trusted them.

I would spend the extra bucks for a factory tranny and good warranty. Or, in your case, I would drive till a problem comes up.
