I called John, And just simply asked him for advice, As I am multiple states away and with the transmission, if you can’t get it there cost-effectively. And he was happy to help me and the transmission shop helping me. Helped us get down to the root of the issue without overkill. Have found his YouTube videos fascinating as I used to work in a transmission shop as well a long time ago. Absolute class act and so friendly We had a quick five minute call when he lined me out, He informed me that I likely didn’t need an entire transmission and told me what would constitute that. Turns out it was the wheels to lead sensors as he’s suspected. Regardless of if the suspicions were right or not the fact that he took two minutes out of his time to talk to me, speaks volumes.

Possibly Shudder Fix EXPERTS! Have a 2010 Toyo FJ Cruiser with an A750F transmission. At 70K miles started to feel dreaded transmission shudder. Well known problem in this transmission in Tacoma PU's, FJ's, Forerunners, and Corolas. Researched the heck out of this problem and many different opinions on root cause but IPT seems to have the knowledge/insight to upgrade your Valve Body to resolve OEM deficiencies and wear that probably cause the shudder. We shipped the Valvebody to IPT from Florida and they turned it around back to us real quick! We also upgraded/replaced the 15 YO torque converter and man now my FJ is shifting/driving better than new. After one tank of gas, about 300 miles driving, I have already seen an increase in my gas mileage by from 18 to 19MPG sugges

I think I can confidently say that I am one of IPT's first customers. John at IPT rebuilt a Jeep transmission for me in 2003. I believe the transmission was, what John called at the time, a train wreck. John skillfully rebuilt and upgraded this transmission for me, since this was a mild performance application. I believe my particular transmission suffered from torque converter clutch failure which contaminated the entire transmission and caused other components to fail. Since John rebuilt the transmission in 2003, the Jeep delivered approximately 20 years of trouble-free service until I sold it a year or two ago - simply do to the vehicle's age. Thanks again John, hope all is well!

Thank you to IPT for building me one hell of a great and high performance transmission for my 370z Nismo 7AT. I just received my car back yesterday from MA Motorsports and it runs amazing! With my car putting down 800+ WHP is no joke but your tranny build was the right ticket to get my car on the road and running great. Thank you, John and team, for being the best at what you do and for providing me with a true high performance transmission! Well done gents!

I live in Edmonton, Alberta CANADA. I own a 1993 Dodge Stealth RT. The overdrive quit working and I was at a loss as to who could fix it and what the problem was. After googling the issue I was having, I was lead to the IPT site. I emailed John a number of times and then spoke with him personally over the phone. Finding a mechanic or even a transmission shop that was willing to do this work was also not an easy task as these cars and the problem I was having are kind of rare in this area. After John assured me he was quite positive as to what my issue was and that I required an "end clutch kit", I went ahead and ordered it. Most mechanics are wary of fixing "self diagnosed" problems ( rightfully so) but the mechanic watched the video that IPT has on YouTube and installed the part no proble
