    Are you considering upgrading to a better transmission on your classic? Whitey's Truck Center in Little Rock, AR can help.

    If you drive something old, there’s a good chance it has fewer gears than you’d like.

These days, there are some simple swap options - here are some things for you to consider.

  • Make that transmission last, it's simple!

    Transmission Cut to show you the inside of it

    Nothing works if your transmission doesn't work!  Simply put you are going nowhere without it and it is the one thing that both car and truck drivers alike never think twice about until it really acts up or they have no power or simply don't move forward.  Most of us have a newer car or truck with an automatic transmission in it vs. a standard transmission so do not notice that it is slipping gears until the problem is really serious so the question is how do you get the most out of your transmission?  The obvious answer is to take care of your transmission with scheduled service per your owner's manual recommendation but we have put together a simple checklist for our Little Rock drivers to help them become "transmission aware" as it were.
