I they gave me all the information I needed to get a new transmission for my 2004 Mustang a few years back. I also had them install it and they did an amazing job. Even gave a decent warranty on it. Overall they are a super professional group and they know what they are doing when it comes to transmissions. read more

Let me start off by saying I have been without my truck for 8 and a 1/2 months. I took it to My mechanic shop that I have been using for years All makes on Blanchet st in Beaumont. Because my transmission had went out . All makes used ideal transmission 2 Rebuild my transmission. Once they got it back From ideal transmission. All makes reinstalled it .Drove it for A-day , had to bring it back to all makes because the transmission had went out .all makes took Trans out sent it back over to ideal transmission for repairs. solenoids went out so they replaced them .All makes reinstalled trans. I went to pick up my truck when it was ready at all makes, not long after. I picked it up transmission went out again. This time it was the torque converter And the pump gone out. Ideal transmission Replaced parts . Sent it back over to all makes ,they reinstalled it. I drove it for a little while about a month and transmission went out again. This time ideal transmission said they wanted the whole truck at their place, to see what is causing it to keep going out. I was out shopping when I got a phone call from Terry letting me know that The torque converter in the transmission was out . that it will cost me $1501.00 . I said oh no I'm not going to pay another penny . I asked her why is it that amount terry said its because they were not the ones who did the R&R labor , which is pulling out and putting in. I said That all makes said that you all wanted the whole truck there. To possibly see what was going on and repair it. When I said I'm not going to pay another penny .. Terry told me that she is going to have her mechanic guy stop working on it and not going to put tran back inside the truck because they had already pulled it out .I said OK that is fine all makes said they have no problem putting it back in. because I paid them the r&r but what was the reason asking for the whole truck if u are going to half as do the work .Ideal transmission ask for the whole truck. terry said they will replace the torque Converter And all makes would just have to put the transmission back .She says she would put transmission in the back of the truck and call All makes to come pick truck. Ideal transmission put the transmission in the front of my truck on the passenger side And put the torque converter behind the passenger seat With fluid still inside the torque converter. I did ask mark what could be causing the transmission to continue going out he said that all makes was putting it in wrong . that they kept busting the pump And vice versa With all makes mechanic shop. Mark said it could be the Fly wheeISo I replaced Fly wheel brand New also the transmission mount Was replaced So when my truck got back to all makes they installed the transmission. I drove it down the street and it went out again and I had enough I said I would not spend Any more money. And I wind up picking up my truck . I brought it to Ed's transmission they cost me $500 to get my truck back . Eds said that 4th and 5th gear is out the pump was good and torque converter was good but As you can see it was just one thing after another I talked to several shops and several people and they told me that ideal should have just tried another transmission but but unfortunately that was never done so here I ended up taking my truck elsewhere And having it repaired.. This is my experience with ideal transmission I could never enjoy my truck because the transmission kept breaking down Because of one thing after another ... If we would have only tried another transmission or you Are used better parts read more

Or maybe it was just my luck to get screwed out of $2,500 and lose my job in the process. I honestly know why I was screwed over but no one acknowledges that racism still exists in South East Texas. The crazy thing is my car just needed another gasket for my oil pan. So I got screwed out of two and a half grand for a fifty dollar job. WOW, WHERE'S THE INTEGRITY?

Instead, I was left waiting almost two hours for a simple oil change. What made it worse was watching the staff casually head out to lunch while customers were still waiting. No updates, no sense of urgency, no respect for people's time. At that point, it was clear I would've been waiting even longer if I stayed, so I left without getting service. If you value your time at all, I don't recommend this place. Unless you have hours to kill and don't mind being ignored, you're better off going somewhere else.

If you need a transmission rebuilt DO NOT USE IDEAL TRANSMISSIONS IN BEAUMONT OR JASPER. None of the owers will give you a straight answer. They believe they are the ONLY expert in the field in the U.S. an all the others are idiots. Mark (Bubba) Reddoch in Jasper called me, the customer that paid him $7852 rebuild to a stage 2 a heavy service transmission, a dumb ass, stupid F***, a retard, a retarded f***, a f***ing retard,(seems to be his favorite word), dense, ignorant and the list goes on. They can not answer a simple question, such as, What specifications should I tune the transmission based on what you did to it? Feel free to contact me if you want to know more. Did I get in his face, yes AFTER he started calling me names.. Mark bubba is punk kid that needs to learn some humility. This is a family owned business that can not separate family from business. read more
