Builds Since the 1970s.
When your transmission, clutch, differential, or transfer case starts letting you down, don’t trust just anyone. At Apollo Transmission, we specialize in diagnosing, rebuilding, and repairing the components that keep your vehicle moving.

Our Mission is Your Transmission.
For nearly five decades, Apollo Transmission has been helping drivers throughout Independence and the Kansas City Metro get back on the road with dependable transmission and driveline repairs.
Founded in the mid-1970s, our shop has built a reputation for honest recommendations, exceptional workmanship, and repairs that last.
Unlike many repair shops that simply replace major components or outsource rebuilds, we perform virtually all transmission and driveline rebuilds in-house. That means greater quality control, faster turnaround times, and repairs completed by technicians who understand every part of your vehicle’s drivetrain.
Whether you drive a daily commuter, work truck, classic car, diesel pickup, or high-performance vehicle, we’re equipped to deliver the expert service your vehicle deserves.
Complete Drivetrain Solutions Under One Roof
From everyday repairs to custom performance builds, Apollo Transmission offers specialized services designed to keep your vehicle performing at its best.
Transmission Repair & Rebuilding
Whether your transmission is slipping, shifting hard, leaking fluid, or has completely failed, our technicians perform accurate diagnostics and complete in-house rebuilds using quality parts and proven techniques.
Clutch Repair & Replacement
If your manual transmission isn’t performing like it should, we provide complete clutch inspections, repairs, and replacements that restore smooth, reliable shifting.
Classic Car Rebuilds
A classic car deserves more than an ordinary repair—it deserves the attention of experienced craftsmen who understand the unique engineering, performance, and character of vintage vehicles.
Transfer Case Service
Four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive vehicles depend on a properly functioning transfer case. We diagnose, repair, and rebuild transfer cases to keep your drivetrain working exactly as it should.
Drivetrain Diagnostics
Not every vibration, noise, or drivability issue is obvious. Our experienced technicians carefully diagnose drivetrain problems so repairs are accurate—not based on guesswork.
Heavy-Duty Transmission Builds
Work trucks demand transmissions built to handle serious loads. We rebuild and strengthen transmissions for towing, hauling, commercial applications, and demanding daily use.
Performance Transmission Builds
Looking for greater durability and performance? We build transmissions designed to handle increased horsepower and torque for street performance, muscle cars, and racing applications.
The Apollo Difference
Why Drivers Have Trusted Apollo Transmission Since the 1970s
Anyone can replace parts. Few shops have the experience and capability to rebuild transmissions and driveline components from the inside out.
At Apollo Transmission, rebuilding isn’t something we send somewhere else—it’s what we do every day.
That commitment gives our customers several important advantages:
• Nearly 50 years of trusted local experience
• Family-owned and operated
• In-house transmission rebuilding
• Specialized transmission and driveline expertise
• Honest inspections and straightforward recommendations
• Quality parts and workmanship
• Heavy-duty and performance build capabilities
• Serving Independence and the entire Kansas City Metro
When you choose Apollo Transmission, you’re working with specialists—not general mechanics.
When Your Vehicle Doesn’t Feel Right, Don’t Wait.
Small transmission or drivetrain problems rarely fix themselves.
If you’re experiencing slipping gears, delayed shifting, unusual noises, vibrations, leaking transmission fluid, clutch problems, or four-wheel-drive issues, having your vehicle inspected early can often prevent more extensive—and expensive—repairs later.
Our experienced technicians will identify the source of the problem and recommend the repair that’s truly needed.
