About Us

What is TRNi?

TRNi: The Transmission Rebuilders Network International, is a world-wide network of over 1,000 transmission technicians, interacting on problems, fixes, diagnosis, hydraulics, functions, bench techniques, part locating/reviewing, homemade tools, assembly tips, and installation tips for the transmission repair industry. TRNi members share knowledge, experience, and advice on the science of rebuilding automatic transmissions, and the art of managing a transmission shop. It is also a forum for direct contact with aftermarket and equipment suppliers to the industry. Many times a manufacturer is able to answer a question that a member has on a product or the availability of a product.

TRNi It is purely a forum for the exchange of information. This will often result in many different ideas to fix a particular problem and you should remember that the ultimate choice as to the correct fix is made by the technician doing the job. TRNi also has a web site that has a database of previous fixes along with a large library of technical tips sent in by members. We encourage you to research the fix database and the technical tips before you post a problem. A chat room is also available to allow real-time interaction with other TRNi members.

TRNi, a History

TRNi had its beginnings in November of 1996 when Bill Fuller had the idea that the Internet was a great place to make contact with other transmission rebuilders. He searched the web for other transmission rebuilders to try to start conversation about rebuilding techniques.

Within a few weeks, Bill had collected around 30 e-mail addresses and the forum was started under the title ?MEATBIN? standing for ?Most Excellent Automatic Transmission Builder?s International Network?. In the beginning, there was no mailer so everybody would send their messages to Bill and he would forward them on to every address on his list. This was ok in the early days but obviously could not continue if the membership was to grow. With the membership starting to become more international, there was a need for a professional sounding name and soon ?TRNi? was born.
