Ok I could try that ... the only thing I find as soon as you ship somthing across the "Broder" the shipping goes through the roof -:t
I can have something shipped from LA to Buffalo and cost $ 20.00 in shipping ... then have the samething shipped across into Ontario from the same place in LA and the shipping goes to $ 77.00 for a few more miles :rant:
Having said all that I will give them a try.

I just try them out on line and I got a meassage "No shipping method Available" ... does that mean they won't ship fluid to Canada .. it could be I know some products companys will not ship ... spray paint etc.

I'm going to try an allison dealer this weekend. If that fails I'd like to know if anyone finds a online source that keeps the shipping down for us canucks.

There's an Allison Repair/Parts Shop, for the big rigs, in Surrey that beat the price on Transynd by quit a bit. I don't remember exactly how much but when I had my tranny upgraded I got my Transynd there.

Here's what I was quoted from the Allison/Detroit Diesel shop up in Campbell River, BC, here on Vancouver Island. I have an '02 K2500HD D/A and for a complete tranny fluid flush and changeout to Transyd synthetic = $200.00 CAD labour, spin on filter and taxes included. The Transyd alone to buy from them, if I do the job myself, is $44.00 CAD per gallon. I would require approx 3 gallons (Imperial) to do the job = $132.00 CAD so for the extra money and no mess I'll let them do the job. Hope this helps.................SWH...:grd:

The home of the big CN Tower, home of the Blue Jays, Maple Leafs etc :blahblah: :blahblah: good enough of a sales pitch? ;)
However having said that I have several Friends up at the "Big Inco" were I go at least once a month in case you have any connections up there.
