Allison-certified RTS technicians.

More than just factory-trained, our certified technicians are truly reman engineers, benefitting from the 40+ years of experience gained by those who came before them. And because Allison is all they do, RTS “Remangineers” are among the finest in the world. That means a more dependable, superior remanufactured Allison transmissions from a partner you can trust for the long haul.

Allison authorized for overhaul (remanufacturing).

There are many authorized Allison dealers remanufacturing Allison transmissions, but not all are authorized for overhaul (remanufacturing). RTS is authorized for overhaul, using only Genuine Allison Parts, meeting and often exceeding Allison specs, performing engineering updates, meeting FTC guidelines and more. So you can trust our Allison remans have been built right.

Warranty and Availability

We believe that the best warranty is the one never used, and ours rarely is. While there may be longer warranties without extra cost, as a fleet maintenance manager, what’s the cost in downtime and operational consequences when that Allison reman goes down one or more times? RTS believes a remanufactured transmission should be built and operate like a brand new transmission, and after 40 years, you can trust ours live up to that standard. That’s why we issue our “Good as Gold” warranty with every Allison reman we build. And with a reserve inventory of 300+ remanufactured Allison transmissions and a production inventory of 500+ Allison transmissions, we are ready to serve you nationwide.
