Don't loan your truck to "cash talks"

[blacksheep10]

I called the place that I got the nv4500 for my dodge redone at yesterday. The guys kind of noncommital with me. won't say what's up. He puts his dad on the phone. apparently I broke a mainshaft in the tranny. Snapped it in two. He says he's seen 5, and they were 4 sled pullers and 1 hauler that had a 3 car ramp. Now, it broke on a tuesday coming around a curve after hitting a bump under full throttle in third with about 35 psi of boost, but my question is, I let luke borrow it the prior friday, do you think that him using it is what caused it to break?
































Anyway, fuggin $180 for a new mainshaft adn they will put new bearings in it and ship it back for free. honestly, I'm not too butthurt about it, the shipping on a pallet from a freight company to Indiana and back would have been $180. That's all they're charging me for going back through it and putting new bearings and shaft in it.

It was definately Lukes fault.

New truck or old truck?

the white one. nv4500
new one has an nv5600 6 speed.

its just sitting in the field with no tranny/case or shafts. kind of sucks I'm still paying on it. laughing1

It was definately Lukes fault.

laughing1 I thought so laughing1

I told the old guy he'd better ship me the mainshaft back with the tranny as a souvenir. first to hang on the wall, and second to prove that's what happened.

As it sits with no drivetrain....OKAY! You tell me when you leave Iowa and I get that drive tiem to pull everything off it I can before you get there. Remember, I strip trucks in minutes for a living when I'm layed off

at least you did not tell them the reason the tranny was new was because i toasted the first tranny to begin with.
at least i told you i ****ed it up and did not just park it behind the barn and stick with the good old story of "it worked fine when i parked it"
