Looking for a good transmission shop around slc Utah to do a transmission upgrade on my truck. Looking to do either a DTT or ATS. Baker's Diesel out of Ogden has been recommended just wounder if this is a good shop or if their is any others to look into.

Thanks
 
Gravedigger... Jason up at Bakers Diesel (801-731-2921) is great. That's who I had fix my transmission when I snapped my input shaft. I highly recommend them!! Your transmission starting to hurt or are you wanting to add some extra horse power?

Another great source, is Ken Jones of Diesel Performance of Utah. He does a lot of upgrades and including manual & auto transmissions, South Bend dealer, ATS dealer and DTT dealer. I don't let anyone touch my truck except me and Ken Jones. You can contact him @ 801-791-2328. Tell him HeberRam recommended you. . :cool:

My vote is in for Bakers. Call Jason and he will take care of you. Also is you want it done on Time, Bakers is the place to go.



ya done on time and they fix it befor you tell them to when you whant them just to find out what was wrong with it, I'll never go back ken will do my work
 
Ken Jones is not a DTT dealer and can't get parts from DTT. Jayson from Baker's diesel is the only factory trained dealer in Utah. Jayson comes to DTT each year to get the latest updates, and can do all the work himself.
 
Ken Jones is the man!!

I didn't want to bring it up, however, smokejunkie is correct. Get it done right the first time. Contact Ken. :cool:
 
Another recomendation for Ken Jones!!!! He is a great guy, his shop does awesome work. He is one of thoses guys that just gets it done, done right, and takes a lot of pride in his work and his customers satisfaction. Oo. Squirrel

Heber Ram and Smoke junkie, there is no debate here about who is a nice guy or not that is not the question. Simple facts are, Bill as a favor to a personal friend of his, ( Lawrence at Diesel Dynamics ) agreed to use Ken's shop as an installer with the understanding that he had a good builder he worked with at a dealership. Ken does not know anything about transmissions so we could not go on his ability as a middle man for transmission expertise. We worked with his builder for awhile until it became apparent that the dealership builder was exactly that a dealership builder much better suited with OEM application transmissions. We then ended our association all together with Ken and advised Lawernce of that, he totally understood as he too has built our transmissions and understood where we were comming from. We choose to go with Baker Diesel as Jason Baker has been trained by us personally.



As for DTT not looking after their customers that is a load of BS just like the rest of the story you guys were told. We have nothing personal against Ken other than he does not have the personal expertise to decipher if a job was done properly by his dealership or not. Even though he is the one being paid he is farming out the job and if a problem arises he is the middle man, he does not know how to diagnose or trouble shoot . That did not work for us, it may be fine for others but not for us. We prefer to stick to Baker as they are the ones doing the building and have a vested interest in customer satisfaction and have control over the end result themselves. It has been our experience that transmissions dont care if you are a nice guy or not just that you know what you are doing,
 
Did you see it on ESPN 2, we got full TV coverage. :D :D



Right now we are in 1st in Division 6 in Super Gas, the last race is in Vegas on October 28-30. Hopefully we can bring home the title.
 
Yes,

Saw it on ESPN2 Drag Racing is the best thing on TV.

Yes I know how good you are doing, will be watching.

Hey, I have over 200k miles on my DTT TC, still working great.

Wow! Maybe there is another side to this story, as well. Ken sure knew what he was talking about, when I dealt with him, and was very knowledgeable when it came to diagnosing problems. I can’t say enough good things about Ken. With the amount of customers that he has, and the ones that just stop by his place to chat, says to me that he is more than just a dealer, but takes the time to know his customers and give them what the need to meet/exceed their needs. No problems here with anything I have, and I will go see him again in a heartbeat after I get a new Mega Cab. Oo.
 
Farming out; where are your torque converters made in house. I don't think so from what I remember reading. We're all just a bunch of cash cows down here in the States anyway
