So in case anyone was wondering the Zombie 914-6 is down for the winter but not by choice.
The transmission had a lose piece in the tail that punched through the case leaking all of it's oil. Anyone who has seen my threads or videos probably know I'm not easy on my car and so you can imagine how I was driving it not knowing the oil was gone. This destroyed the case of the transmission beyond repair unfortunately. So the Zombie has been parked in the garage and will be until a proper solution has been resolved. Haha I'm sure I won't be getting much sympathy but I thought it was only fair to update the bad since I was rubbing in all the good months ago! |

Are his prices competitive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) About 700 for the rebuild if I supply all the parts. How's that? |

Actually quite good. $700 for labor is $200 more than I charge, but that would be the shipping amount. Do you have to supply new parts or will he have used? Many places charge $2000-3000+ which is ridiculous. Glad you have someone close. |
