Just how frustrating do you think it would be, if someone who reads these boards, member or not, has their gearbox rebuilt, unbeknown to them, by the same person or company that you used, and has a problem with it. If you had flagged up against that entity, STATING THE FACTS AS YOU FOUND THEM, ie your brass emulsion, then they, or anyone else, could form a more informed opinion on whether they would like to use that entity for a rebuild.
Why are you shouting? Chill…..
Now maybe Mauduit did write to you and ask you 'who', but how many people are going to do that? If you just describe the facts and write this is the company that I used, you are actually doing a service. It does not matter a jot to me, as I am never going to use anyone up your way for a gearbox overhaul or anything else, but you might just be doing someone a right favour by naming. I will leave it up to you to do the right thing, or not
As for PM’s, as many as are interested I hope and as I stated I may have been unlucky. Interesting that you know who asked too. The comment of yours “Up your way” was a bit condescending, but hey, it’s a forum.
Mark also wrote 'As for the CV shafts, it had actually nothing to do with the droop, so I’ll let you speculate on other reasons. Suffice to say they are mechanically sound and have given no issues, it’s just a preventative thing.
I do not understand why you want to play games here. People are genuinely interested in why you changed from 'perfectly good' cv's to another set up. Maybe they are considering a purchase and are wondering which to go for. Or should they PM you about that as well?
As I said, there was a massive rant on here re CV’s and one dude got right royally torn to pieces, maybe in part due to a bad attitude (but I speculate there, as I can’t be bothered looking for it again). And yes, people can PM me over the issue. However, when the gaiters are in great condition and CVs start to leak grease from between the flanges, brakes tend not to work so well when contaminated, well at least not up here.
I just could not be bothered with the hassle of splitting them, sealing and refitting. Better for me to,just buy a new set as my time is worth more… there, happy?
Cheers
