So, Noel's folks live in Fulda, MN. Middle of no where, but it is a pretty nice place. They have a large garage and I think that it would be no problem at all to swing a rebuild clinic there come spring early summer (May/June). Any of you ice lovers interested?

Did I just open the flood gates? |

You kiddin? Since my transaxle just developed a serious problem I'm sure I would be in.
Brad Mayeur rebuilt this one with a billet intermediate plate and an HB 5th. I got about 25000 miles on it. I was pretty mean to it in Monument National Park. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) After I returned from Red Rocks I took it on a 200 mile run. About 40 miles from home I down shifted from 5th and let out the clutch. It sounded like an old truck tranny from the 40's. It was howling and whinning. Very hard shifting now. I think the bearing in the intermediate plate failed. I'd have to say I put it in the hurt locker. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Brad did a great job on this one. I got over 25000 miles on a 901 behind my 928 torque monster. I was going to send it back to him in February or March. But if your having a clinic I may just have to try to fix it myself. |
