Title: Know what you are talking about
Post by: Crosley.In.AZ on August 10, 2004, 09:40:47 PM
We had a vehicle in the shop . brought in on a flat bed since the "tranny was junk".

Well , after a quick check we discovered the rear diff was broken.  My boss calls the customer........ :)

The customer just had a Auburn posi installed.  He states : " I jacked the rear tires off the ground, both tires spin together"  

My boss asks: " did you notice the drive shaft does not spin with the  rear tires?"

Customer answers: " well I had the tranny in park , so I figured the drive shaft would not spin with the rear tires"

The customer still wanted us to build the tranny.  We can't do that since we cannot test drive the vehicle.  Always something!

In the photo is the fine workmanship of the shop he had the Auburn unit installed.  Why YES that is sillycone all over the temp sensor that was installed into the tranny pan.  Why YES that is tranny fluid dripping off it.

Pure garbage work

They probably charged extra for color matching the silicone to that purty chrome loom that really makes the tranny shift faster.

Some people just shouldn't be allowed to play with tools!

Oh, they didn't use tools, unless that silicon crud qualifies as a tool.   :shock:
