Or at least close by.

Have a '97 ford f-350 4x4 7.3 diesel that I'm sure the transmission went out on yesterday coming home. Tried all the gears and nothing. Only thing that works is reverse. Hoping can get by with just a torque converter and rebuild kit. Anybody have any recommendations of where to bring it for an estimate or better yet somebody who does work on the side that will just charge me labor and let me buy the parts to save some cash?

Auto or Manual? Rebuilding a Manual isn't that bad if you have the tools. Getting it out and back in is the pain and that's where a lot of the labor is, at least when I had one rebuilt a long time ago. So we towed it to a friend's house that is a mechanic and I helped him remove it. Then we had to take it to a shop for them to replace some sync rings, then we put it back in, with a new clutch, starter, and a few other things.
