Building the Future of Our Industry

From the East Coast to the West Coast, builders are retiring. Knowledge is walking out the door.

At Whatever It Takes Transmission Parts — alongside the incredible shops and manufacturers we partner with nationwide — the answer is simple:

We grow them.

We’re focused on building real apprenticeship pathways starting at 18 years old — creating paid, hands-on training with mentorship, structure, and a clear path to long-term success.

This isn’t just a job.

It’s a trade.

It’s a specialty.

It’s a six-figure skill set when mastered.

-Phase One begins in our Mobile, AL and Louisville, KY operations — serving as pilot hubs where the next generation will learn teardown, inspection, high-demand builds like 6 speeds to 10 speeds.

From there? Coast-to-coast expansion to the shops who partner with WIT every day.

Because when shops grow builders:

  • Standards rise
  • Comebacks decrease
  • Product knowledge improves
  • The entire industry gets stronger

Shops become training centers.

Manufacturers become education partners.

WIT becomes a catalyst.

From the Gulf Coast to the West Coast — this is how we win.

The future of the transmission industry won’t be built by chance. It’ll be built intentionally. One apprentice at a time.
