Hi to all:

It may be helpful to let everyone know where you are located, your Avatar doesn't have this information displayed so you might want to add this info there or here.

Good Luck,

thanks

searching posts for a couple days here and on Renntech.org seem to agree that GBOX and California Motorsports have good reputations.
Mine is at GBOX. I can't wait to get it back. Stan has been good to work with. But I think parts are dear no matter where you go.

well, i have the tranny back and in. 80 miles on it and sounding nice.
Fast turnaround at GBOX. They got it on a Tuesday and on Friday at noon I got the call it was done. And they say they are swamped! I expected to wait at least 2 weeks.
The bad news is it cost $1900 more than we estimated. And no one called to confirm that I wanted/could pay $1700 for a used ring and pinion:-(
Would i go to them again? Yes But for the cost of shipping I'll take a vacation and deliver it myself and make sure we understand each other.
