Blue88Comanche Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 its not a good sign when, you tell your mechanic you want to swap from a BA/10 to an AX-15, and he doubts it will work... so i tell him if he has any questions just call me. so after i get the parts needed and he is installing the internal slave he calls me saying there is a part missing and he can't work on it... well i work 20 miles away and i had to lave work early and spend 5 min with an angle grinder to fab up what he needed, again i told him if he needed anything just call me.. well about a hour before they close i called them because they should have finished my jeep by then... they stopped working on it about an hour before i called because the tranny cross member would not line up as it should, i told them i would be there in a few min. after i get there i looked at it and the rubber part of the tranny mount was backward, so i swapped it around and what do you know... it fits... we spent the last 30 min of his work day finishing up reassembling my MJ.. hopefully tomorrow morning they will put in the tranny oil in and charge my battery then i can finally get my jeep and people will stop wasting my time.... :fs1: :headpop: :mad: :rant:
sinkrun Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Sounds like you should have just done it yourself.
Blue88Comanche Posted October 21, 2011 Author Posted October 21, 2011 i would have, but just don't have a place to do it or the tools needed.
Blue88Comanche Posted October 21, 2011 Author Posted October 21, 2011 when i put a engine into red i was planning to do that myself, just need a key to my uncle's garage and to move my CJ-5 out to the side carport
500 MJ Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 i would have, but just don't have a place to do it or the tools needed. But at least you have the brain that you need to do the job, you got him beat there!
