    For parts they are good, never had an issue other than some of their “tech sheets” are outdated so I typically recommend calling them to confirm part numbers before ordering.

    for assembled 3rds and clamshells they have a great warranty. I know several people who have gone through a painless warranty process with them. However, I have now rebuilt 2 differentials built by them this month, both of which were missing oil slingers and/or deflectors. Not a catastrophic issue, or why the differentials needed to be rebuilt, but still off putting to me. I have also heard of some people having issues with ring gear bolts backing out or backlash being outside of spec. But that’s all second hand stuff I’m hearing, haven’t seen it personally. Hell, I’m still running diffs built by them several years ago in my Tacoma

    Thank you!

    Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions!

    Don't be, shit happens, and it's to be expected when buying used.
    I almost changed them last year before I put it in due to the mileage, and got lazy and said send it. :D

    Anybody want a free Craftsman power washer? I haven't used this in a least 4 or 5 years, but it worked great back then. Missing all but one tip, could use a tuneup I'm sure. Moving and don't want to drag this with me. IMG_0908.jpg IMG_0909.jpg

    On a similar lazy note... the original motor I threw back in after grenaded the rebuilt block... I was to lazy to do anything to the bottom end, I smoked cyl 4. Compression tested Friday and found it at 40lbs lol

    So if anyone's got a 5vz lying round. I'm in the market for another cheap fix to keep driving for now.
