The softer side of JT

my sister wouldnt deal well with a soft JttmfT.

Andy I hate to tell you but its just the way it goes. We deal with this s*** every day. You work on trucks for therapy, we work on trucks for mortgages and Kroger...

 

[G-Cat]

We miss Kroger

 

[Bodean]

s***...I'm all soft.

Unless you try to take that Miller Lite koozie!

 

[BMThiker]

s***...I'm all soft.

Theme song?

Yeah, i've stopped getting pissed about this type stuff. Just part of it.

Got the newly rebuilt (2nd time) steering box back from WTO. Thx to @Fireman for help w that.

Carefully hooked it all back up, aligned steering, cranked, and started bleeding the system.

It was right about then that it started SPEWING *$%! FLUID AGAIN.

So it’s now pulled and will go back to them. Again.

 

[Fireman]

Not too good of a track record.

 

[fountainhead]

GD.

 

[wngrog]

Fail.

[wngrog]

At this point there is no way I can recommend that place or this PS kit. The mini box has all but disappeared and if it goes bad you are hosed.

Double screwed.

@ntsaint ACC recommends these guys: Service Department

 

[Clutchee]

@ntsaint ACC recommends these guys: Service Department

Exactly who I would recommended!

 

[ntsaint]

Thanks. This is WTO's last chance. Will get $ back and check out the above if it blows up again.

Or just go back to manual steering.

Ugh.

 

[BMThiker]

I realize you want justice, but at what point is this affair considered a S&M fetish? I'd be done with them.

 

[ntsaint]

Well, they already have the box back at their place. Might as well give them their last shot.

 

[FJ60Cam]

I’ve never understood why they don’t pressure test the boxes before sending them back out. Seems like that step would pay for itself.

 

[ntsaint]

He swore to me they had tested this one. I don't see how...

 

[Bodean]

With all of the stories I've heard thru the years there is no way I'd send anything to these guys. Are there ANY success stories involving Toyota parts?

 

[wngrog]

Do any of y’all remember Josh Bertchley? He used to own Baertrax and is a long time Cruiser guy.

He purchased AGR power steering, now Steerco. He is who I would send stuff to now. My contact Lance at PSC left last year so I can’t vouch anymore there.
