[QUOTE="006, post: 9756049, member: 5015"] rofles! Seriously though, I personally referred every local customer of mine that purchased parts from us that needed a shop for install/service. Sadly, I doubt that he's aware of how much side business he was getting from my referrals. Makes me feel bad for two reasons: He might have fuggered up their work and they'll forever blame me for sending them there, and second reason is he fuggered up the personal business I provided him. 75% is not good enough. Accepting responsibility for both of these: Putting too much RTV in the keyway and using an impact on the crank pulley versus using a torque to spec, and for using an impact only on the pinion rather than a torque wrench to spec, would have ended this issue, but to smart mouth and remark that it's the pulley's fault and talk crap as a result is not the way to handle things: I brought him a MARCH pulley (same company that Ford used for the 2000 Cobra R's pulleys) and TIMKEN rear end bearings (Exactly what he asked for!!). WTF?? I never once asked for a "hook-up" or discount either. At the end of his "job", he quoted me a price, I reached into my pocket and paid him exactly what he asked for. I did not try to negotiate or anything. I paid the full amount straight up. This is the kind of attitude AND gratitude I get for sending him tons of referrals for over 4 years? What the bloody ****??
