I hope that'* not why he got let go.............just thinking out loud Peter. Is there anyone else in the shop that can finish it? Is it possible you can tow it home and have it finished there since he may not want to be anywhere near your work now. Could you offer to pay him a bit more now that he'* out of work? Again, just thinking out loud.


I agree...............that just plain sucks.

The subframe install is easy. We can talk you through that.

The trans rebuild. That'* where it may be tough.

It'* the curse

ok, im cooling off alittle... the tras is done - filter, torque conveter, fluid.

finding someone to install it for me will be the hard part (99% of the guys here are 100% ********)

I already asked to, one said he didnt to that kind of work, the other told me to go **** myself.


the trans guy wasnt fired actually.. he gave his to weeks and the told him to leave the property imidiatley

I tell you managment if fucked around here

Oh..then no problem.

Do you have access to the trans jack and some basic tools? We can walk you right through it. The hardest part is ensuring the converter is in properly and lifiting things into place. Most likely since you are at a dealer..you have the right jacks and tools to make it easy.
