Professional Driveline Rebuilds & Restoration
Buffalo & WNY's Trusted Driveline Rebuild Experts Since 1974
FREE TOWING & DIAGNOSTICS
The moment your driveshaft starts vibrating or your transfer case quits is never convenient. Continental Transmission, Buffalo’s trusted driveline rebuild shop, offers free towing anywhere across Western New York. Whether it’s a broken U-joint on the Thruway, a failing CV axle in the Southtowns, or driveline clunking that leaves you stranded, our fleet’s already on its way. We service rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and 4x4 systems with the same careful attention that defines every Continental Transmission repair.
MASTER DRIVELINE REBUILDERS
Rebuilding driveline systems has been our focus for more than five decades, and that experience shows in every project we complete. Our certified driveline mechanics carefully disassemble, inspect, and rebuild driveshafts, transfer cases, and axle assemblies with exact attention to factory specifications. Each component is restored or replaced with parts that meet or exceed original equipment standards. The result is a driveline system that performs just as it did the day it left the factory floor.
FLEXIBLE FINANCING OPTIONS
A driveline rebuild is an important investment in how your vehicle puts power to the pavement. Our financing plans make that investment manageable without ever compromising on quality or workmanship. Approval happens quickly, which means less waiting and more driving. With flexible payment options, you can take care of the driveline repair your vehicle needs without the financial stress that often comes with unexpected breakdowns.
COMPREHENSIVE WARRANTY COVERAGE
Every driveline rebuild we complete comes with a 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty that covers both parts and labor. That warranty reflects the same dedication and commitment to quality that has kept Buffalo drivers relying on Continental Transmission for generations. Your rebuilt driveline will perform the way it should, and if something ever goes wrong, we’ll make it right.
ALL MAKES & MODELS
We rebuild driveline systems for every kind of vehicle, from daily commuters to heavy-duty trucks. Our technicians handle everything from compact crossovers and family SUVs to lifted pickups and commercial haulers with the same steady expertise. Each rebuild is measured, aligned, and finished to exact standards so the system runs smoothly and holds up over time. Every job receives the same level of precision and care from start to finish.
PRECISION REBUILD PROCESS
Our process starts with a complete disassembly and inspection of every component. Worn bearings, seals, and U-joints are replaced with premium materials, and yokes and companion flanges are machined back to precise tolerances. This methodical approach ensures your rebuilt driveline delivers smooth power transfer and stands up to our demanding roads, whether you’re commuting on the 190 or hauling through the Southtowns.
Certified Driveline Rebuild Services in Buffalo & WNY
FOR OVER FIVE DECADES, WESTERN NEW YORK DRIVERS HAVE RELIED ON CONTINENTAL TRANSMISSION FOR REBUILT DRIVELINES THAT DELIVER LASTING PERFORMANCE.
Driveline components take real punishment around here. Potholes on the 190, frost heaves on Route 5, winter salt corroding everything it touches, and the constant stress of four-wheel drive systems grinding through lake effect snow. Add in the wear from towing boats to the Southern Tier or hauling equipment for work, and eventually U-joints fail, driveshafts develop imbalance, and transfer cases start making noises they shouldn’t.
When your driveline needs a complete rebuild, the shop you trust and the quality of their work matter more than you might think.
Continental Transmission has handled these rebuilds since 1974 with precision workmanship, premium components, and warranties you can actually depend on. Our three locations in West Seneca, Cheektowaga, and Hamburg give you convenient access to technicians who’ve rebuilt thousands of driveline systems and understand exactly what Western New York roads demand from your vehicle.

The shop has advanced tools and experienced technicians ready to handle driveline rebuilds of any size, along with bilingual staff who assist customers in English or Spanish.

Our Hamburg driveline shop at 5187 Camp Road, just off I-90 exit 57, serves the Southtowns with the same expertise found at all Continental Transmission locations. The team works on everything from daily drivers to heavy-duty 4×4 trucks, providing complete driveline restoration when your vehicle needs more than a basic repair can deliver.
Your Complete Driveline Rebuild Center
Continental Transmission has led the way in driveline rebuilds for more than fifty years, earning its reputation through precision work and a deep understanding of what keeps these systems performing. Each rebuild begins with a complete teardown and detailed inspection, followed by the careful restoration of every component to proper balance and tolerance. The result is a driveline that runs smooth, strong, and reliable, no matter where the road takes you.
Our Comprehensive Rebuild Services
Every driveline rebuild includes a complete range of services designed to restore smooth, reliable power transfer. To achieve that level of reliability, each rebuild goes through a detailed sequence of service steps.
• Complete diagnostic assessment and disassembly of driveline components
• Thorough inspection of driveshafts, U-joints, CV joints, and companion flanges
• Precision measurement of yokes, splines, and bearing surfaces
• Replacement of all worn bearings, seals, and universal joints
• Machining of yokes and flanges to restore proper tolerances
• Dynamic balancing of driveshaft assemblies
• Transfer case and differential inspection and seal replacement
• Fresh lubricants and proper torque specifications throughout
• Comprehensive road testing for vibration and noise verification
• Detailed documentation and warranty registration
Each step is performed by certified technicians using factory-approved procedures and premium components. We take the time to ensure your rebuilt driveline operates smoothly and quietly, delivering the performance your vehicle was designed to provide.
The Value of a Complete Driveline Rebuild
Every driveline reaches a point where wear becomes more than minor maintenance can handle. Bearings loosen, seals fail, and vibration increases until replacement parts alone no longer solve the problem. A professional rebuild restores the system as a whole, bringing every component back into proper alignment and balance.
A complete rebuild means you regain the quiet, steady performance your vehicle had when it was new. Power transfers efficiently, vibration disappears, and you can drive without worrying about what might fail next. For drivelines that are truly worn out, a proper rebuild provides the clean slate that patch repairs simply can’t.
Advanced Rebuilding Technology
Driveline rebuilding demands specialized equipment to achieve the precision required for smooth, vibration-free operation. Each of our shops is equipped with dynamic balancing machines that measure and correct imbalance to exact tolerances, along with precision tools that verify bearing fits and shaft alignment. Machining systems restore yokes and flanges to factory specifications for a perfect fit.
We invest in this level of equipment because driveline work depends on accuracy measured in thousandths of an inch. Even a driveshaft slightly out of balance can destroy U-joints and bearings, while a worn yoke allows movement that leads to clunking and accelerated wear. Our technicians use these tools on every rebuild to ensure each component meets the tight tolerances needed for stable, reliable performance at highway speeds and under load.
Warranty Protection and Peace of Mind
Our driveline rebuild warranty reflects the confidence we place in our work. Every rebuild comes with 12-month or 12,000-mile coverage on parts and labor, with extended options available for commercial vehicles or high-mileage applications.
If warranty service ever becomes necessary, we make it a priority because we understand how essential your vehicle is to your daily life. Over the years, we’ve earned the trust of local drivers by standing behind every rebuild we complete. That commitment continues today with responsive service and reliable protection you can count on.

Local businesses rely on dependable vehicles, and Continental Transmission supports that need with specialized driveline rebuilding services for commercial and fleet applications. Our program includes priority scheduling, fleet pricing, and detailed service documentation to simplify maintenance planning and cost control.
We understand the demands placed on work trucks, delivery vehicles, and service fleets.

With detailed records and warranty coverage, fleet managers can plan confidently and reduce unplanned downtime.
