Denver tech, Lincoln tech, and I'm sure a few others. I learned from the old school of Hard Knox. Never got a degree but I learned a thing or two. I put in quite a few years before a shop owner took the time and a chance to teach me. It's not easy and somethings they can not teach you in books. A tech school is good place to get the theories and from there you never stop learning. Good luck to you. Vince

What type of transmissions? I learned alot of the one I do by simply tearing them appart and putting them back together... sometimes it takes a try or 2 or 4 but just pay attention to what your doing... If you dont have to spend a bunch of time and money in tech schools you'd be better off...

I´m tearing the TH and those old ones,they are "easy" to rebuild,I would be interested in the modern trannys
