Truck Transmission in Kirkland

Kirkland's Drivetrain Specialists for Truck Transmission

Kirkland stretches from its waterfront downtown up through Juanita, Totem Lake and the annexed neighborhoods of Finn Hill and Kingsgate, dense hills threaded by I-405. Jamie's Transmission Service has built truck transmissions since 1988, and trucks are where our warranty means the most, because Kirkland trucks work: towing, hauling, plowing and idling on job sites. We rebuild everything from half-ton pickups to motorhomes, dump trucks, cube vans and extended vans.

What Kirkland Driving Does to Your Drivetrain

Kirkland driving alternates between lakefront stop-and-go and I-405's rush-hour accordion, with enough hill starts on Market Street and Juanita Drive to keep clutches and converters honest. On diesel and heavy duty trucks from Kirkland, converter choice matters. We install billet torque converters on heavy builds because billet handles heat without warping the way stamped steel does, and multi-disc converters when the load calls for more clamping power.

How the Work Is Done for Kirkland Customers

Kirkland's fleet skews new, which increasingly means the 8- and 10-speed automatics whose converter shudder and valve-body wear are today's most common failure pattern in our bays. When a work truck is down the business is down, so we prioritize accurate diagnosis on the first visit for Kirkland trucks: road test, scan, fluid condition and a pan inspection, because what the magnet has collected usually settles the argument about what is going on inside.
