Transmission Repair & Replacement in Benton, AR

A slipping gear or a hard shift is unsettling. We inspect it thoroughly first, tell you honestly whether it needs replacing, and price the job in writing before anything comes apart.

We inspect before we ever say the word replacement

When a transmission starts acting up, most owners assume the worst, and most of the time the worst is not what is actually happening. A dirty filter, low or burnt fluid, a failing sensor or a solenoid can all produce the same slipping, hesitation or hard shift as a transmission that genuinely needs to come out. We run a thorough inspection first and give you a detailed estimate before we recommend replacement, not after we have already started the work.

If replacement really is the answer

When a transmission is past the point of repair, we fit Jasper remanufactured units rather than a used pull from a salvage yard of unknown history. Installation and testing are done in-house, and the job carries our 2-year, 24,000-mile warranty on parts and labor, whichever comes first. You get a written estimate before we order the unit, and the car does not go back on the road until it has been road tested.

Baxley's has been fitting transmissions from 200 Longhills Rd W since 1990. Call (501) 466-7483.

Why we fit Jasper over a salvage-yard unit

A used transmission pulled from a wrecked vehicle can have as many unknown miles and unknown history as the one failing in your car right now. Jasper remanufactured units are built to factory specification and tested before they ship, which is why we can back the install with the same 2-year, 24,000-mile warranty we put on every other job in this shop. Fleet vehicles and diesel trucks are handled the same way as a family sedan: inspection first, written estimate second, remanufactured unit third.

For larger jobs like this, we offer Synchrony financing at 0% interest on repairs of $199 or more, paid off within six months, with no annual fee. We will walk you through it at the counter if a transmission job is bigger than you budgeted for this month.

Every make, every modelDomestic and foreign

One shop for the transmission and everything around it

A transmission rarely fails in isolation. Cooling lines, mounts and the electrical connectors that feed the shift solenoids all get checked as part of the same job, so a new or remanufactured transmission is not bolted onto a problem that will bring it back to the same fault a few months later. We service most makes and models, domestic and foreign, using both OEM and aftermarket parts, and we will explain that trade-off on your specific vehicle rather than defaulting to whichever part happens to be on the shelf.

While your vehicle is in the bay for a job of this size, the complimentary local taxi will get you home and bring you back to Longhills Road when it is ready.
