Guys:

I started hearing that tell-tale whistling-whirring sound usually heard when the torque converter is starting to fail. Since I'll probably need a new one, and the transmission has a lot of miles on it anyway I think I'll be looking for a rebuilt.

I won't have time to take it out of the truck, and I won't have time to work on it myself, so I'm going to have to wheel it into a shop and have them drop it out, rebuilt it with a new torque converter, and put it in the truck for me.

Anyone know of a good shop in the Seattle area? What about the puget sound area in general? It doesn't have to be just Seattle...

Thx.
