Last time I emailed with Mark was in mid-December. This is what he had to say:

Quote
We have auto and manual 3.15 gears ready to go and 2 sets of auto 2.85 same as yours.

The next batch of 2.85 will be January 2008.


I don't believe the 3.15 gears are for Gen I trucks. It's my understanding that only the 2.85 gears will work with them. Speaking from the experience of wheeling my truck with 2.85 gears for the last three years, however, you wouldn't be disappointed. I can climb anything my tires will hang onto, never slip the clutch, and never kill the engine (I have a 4-banger). Makes climbing easy.

These are from two years ago:

Almost 8-9 months ago I tried Frank and Mark several times but was never really able to speak with them directly. I didnt have any good luck contacting them, so then the money I had saved while waiting had to be used up for something else, so now since its cold outside, the money tress hasnt bloomed yet <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Hoping to get this started back up and finish my Monty up.

btw, any direct e mails I can try for next time?

Angelo,

Don't forget, if you happen to get their number and try to call them, 5:00pm your time is 8:00am their time in Australia and usually the Aussies I call aren't in the office until 9:00/10:00am. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

HTH.

on that note, can you send me Frank's direct phone number or email as well? I have been trying to email him and find him on both forums since april 07 and he never gets back to me; there was about 5 of us that wanted a batch of left over articulator units that he was going to work on for us and the deal kinda went dead after april b/c I never heard from him again. any help would be greatly appreciated.
