Need a new 4L80E for my '93 3500 dually 7.4

Hi everyone. I have over the last 10 months, spent $7500 in repairs to my tranny. Original fault is loss of reverse after engauging at 50mph - the shift linkage was bodgie and had a broken tranny mount. We hit a bad corrigated surface going around a slight corner.
I just spent 7 days with no OD or engine braking which was not fun seeing I was travelling thru the highest mountain area in Victria Australia. This is the fourth time it has happened in the last 10 months...I will not spend any more money on this box!!
My question is....."Where can I pick up a really good built tranny to suit my dually and will handle the tc as well". I need it sent to Texas for transport to Australia.
Thanks

    I Have used one of their 700R4's and I know of 2 other have had no problems with their Transmissions
  • TCI also has a reputation among racers for building strong transmissions I think they offer a 4L80 and also a 6 sp auto:

    This place supposedly builds some strong transmissions also, here is their version of your trans:

    Do some research on www.Performancetruck.net Jake is the 4L80E master
  • Google jasper transmissions here in the states. I am sure they will work out shipping for you.
