Budget Transmission Expands to Russellville & Fort Smith: Same Trusted Team, New Investments, Faster Turnaround
Budget Transmission is proud to announce two new locations in Russellville and Fort Smith, expanding our ability to serve drivers across Central and Western Arkansas with the same expertise and affordability we’re known for.
Whether you drive a truck, SUV, or sedan, transmissions are all we do—and now we’re bringing our specialized transmission repair and rebuild services to even more Arkansas communities.
Russellville: Now Open & Nearly Fully Remodeled
Our Russellville transmission shop, located at the former Expert Transmission facility, officially opened under the Budget Transmission name in August. We’ve nearly completed a full remodel of the entire shop to bring it up to our modern standards.
📍 1717 S Arkansas Ave, Russellville, AR 72801

Here’s what’s new at our Russellville location:
- Upgraded bays and workstations
- Cleaner, more efficient shop layout
- A new management and diagnostic process
- Access to our full parts network for faster repairs
