I beg to differ...

My research says that the tranny we have in our VXs started production with the 1990 model year and ran without changes until 98. Chevy Luvs had a simple 3 speed auto trans and went out of production in 82 with the introduction of the S-10. (YUK!)

Any tranny or engine wears out and needs service. Heads on Broncos and most other vehicles don't just go bad. The go bad for a reason. Overheats, low oil, lean fuel mixtures, all avoidable by the way with routine scheduled maintenence.

Maintenence shouldn't be about fixing it AFTER it's broke!

Hope your new trans and you get along fine and have many happy years of driving!! I think you got a pretty good deal, and a good warranty! That means they believe in their product because the can back it up with quality workmanship.

They're pretty confidant that it will last that long WITH ROUTINE MAINTENANCE!!
