Manufacturing Excellence

Zumbrota Drivetrain takes pride in the meticulous remanufacturing process of their manual transmissions. Each unit undergoes a rigorous three-step inspection to ensure it meets OEM specifications:

1. Pre-Inspection: Checking for case cracks, excessive wear, and OEM-specific issues.
2. Component Measurement: Ensuring all parts meet OEM standards.
3. Final Assembly: Building each unit to Zumbrota's high-quality standards, including testing for shaft straightness, gear wear, and synchronizers.

Every transmission is also dyno-tested for operation, shiftability, and noise levels before being cleaned with a proprietary hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure. This attention to detail sets Zumbrota apart in the manual transmission market.
