Honestly, this is my very first ever review I have ever left but Alvie deserves this. He is the most genuine and caring person I have ever met. He's not just here to make a buck, he truly cares about his customers and the vehicles they have to ensure safety, quality and care. I walked in with an issue and walked out with a friend. I still call him just to chat and ask advice and if he's free, he will always assist. He made sure to explain everything to me so that I understood and you honestly cannot beat his customer service. It's hard to find decent people you can trust with your vehicle but he most definitely is one of them, 10/10, would highly recommend every time.

Manual transmissions aren’t necessarily simple, but they’re much easier to understand in concept than their automatic counterparts. You’re probably aware there are gears in manual transmissions - but there’s a little more to it than that. Here are some of the major components you’ll find in a manual transmission.

Shafts - There are three main shafts inside a manual transmission. There’s an input shaft where engine power is transferred via the clutch, and that drives the layshaft, also known as the countershaft. The countershaft has different sized gears to achieve various gear ratios. Corresponding gears on the countershaft connect to the output shaft. The output shaft is connected to the driveshaft, which powers the differential.

Once you know what's in your transmission, and what’s connected to it, it’s much easier to understand how it works. Let's take a look at how it all comes together. At Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited in Jacksonville, FL, we want to make sure you know how your car works so you can keep it in great condition.

Are you considering upgrading to a better transmission on your classic? Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited in Jacksonville, FL can help.  If you drive something old, there’s a good chance it has fewer gears than you’d like. With all the 6 and 8 speed transmissions on the road today, it’s hard to imagine that just a few decades ago we were getting by with just 2 or 3 gears. These days, there are some simple swap options - here are some things for you to consider.
