    Has anyone dealt with these guys?
    I'm waiting on a tow from them, to one of their shops.

    Looks like one of my diffs or power divider has come apart and they are the closest help I can find.

    Thanks.

    Used them a few times. Seemed they were pretty high but at least able to come out.

    That's reassuring. Shop labor at home hovers around $125-145/hour so I'm used to some pretty high prices.

    I'd rather pay once.

    That sucks, I just went thru that the first week of November. Had the back one rebuilt when I got home. It wouldn't have lasted much longer either. The races for the carrier bearings were pitted REALLY BAD and caused the bearings to fail.

    We have them do some trailer work for us. Everything is always done right and when they say it will be done.
