I have difficulty finding shops that are knowledgeable about and experienced with Toyota trucks…read more But over the years I've learned to use Western Transmission for driveline work. They've rebuilt a 4Runner rear differential that a different local shop botched, and they've installed several CV axles, also in 4Runners. As a loyal Toyota owner for almost 40 years, I've learned to use only OEM Toyota parts, which I purchase from authorized dealers. WT is the only shop in Idaho Falls that I can find that will install these parts. So I use WT exclusively for driveline work (which is all they do). Prices are reasonable, and the work is done well. Randy, the knowledgeable fellow at the front desk, understands the OEM part issue I face as a Toyota owner, and has been accommodating. Western Transmission has been better than any dealership shop I've used in four decades.

They were thorough and so very reasonable in their rates. Communication regarding needed service…read morewas excellent. Thank you for completing the service for my car!

They worked on two of my vehicles last year. The first was a full transmission replacement. They…read morewalked me through my options and gave me a quote for the replacement. Less than a week later they had the vehicle up and running and for less than the original estimate. The second was a repair job. After quoting the job to replace an assembly of solenoids , I got a call back and was told that the transmission was different than what the book showed and that they'd be able to replace the faulty solenoid instead of the whole assembly for less than what they had originally quoted, but I was also informed that it might be the computer instead. The error codes were inconclusive. We proceeded with the repair, but 4 weeks later had the same problem. Took it in and they replaced the computer and it is running fine. They stood behind their work and didn't bicker with me after I brought the car back in. They just took care of the problem. Two days later I was on the road again. They were very straight forward and honest about the costs and options available. I had gotten quotes from a lot of shops on the first vehicle, and they were right in line with the other quotes. Furthermore, when it was all said and done, the total cost was less than any of the other quotes I had received. They've earned my trust and my future business.

The owner never listened to what I had to say and kept charging us for small fixes, when I knew it needed a replacement transmission. Once he finally said it was the transmission ( duh! ) he still never fixed all the issues. After spending several thousands for the transmissions, the van is still missing gears at times. Then I just got to filing the paperwork and noticed (my mistake for not paying attention at the time - we paid with a cc over the phone and the paperwork was finished by the time my husband picked it up) that he charged me $ 100 for towing. He never had to tow the van, we drove it in each time it was in the shop. Please DO NOT EVER USE THIS PLACE! They are a rip off and the issue will never be resolved.

He told me he put 3 new starters in because it kept grinding everytime the key was turned. (2 from O'Reilly's and 1 from AutoZone) Well that was in mid-February. Mid-August and I had to spend $400+ to get a NEW starter. Was told by honest mechanic that the starter in my truck was a rebuilt/remanufactured starter. Said that on the starter itself. Now if that sounds honest to you and you don't mind a crap job, I highly recommend Blackfoot Transmission. It appears quality work is hit or miss here. Well, I missed it. DON'T GO HERE!

Their prices are great, the people are personable and willing to answer questions.

They are my go to for any work that I need done, unless it's something special and I have to go to my Acura dealer. They are my go to for changing my oil too. I can't heap enough praise on this place, there customer service is amazing and I won't go anywhere else for car repair.
