I just bought a starter from Weddle yesterday, installed it today, and they were quick, curteous, and helpful. The only snag i ran into was that their power mounting stud on the starter was too short for my '84, and the guy i was talking to called around to a couple shops to see what they had done about it, and called me back. Good stuff. (btw, they just clipped the oem terminal and attached a nice, beefy ring terminal). Kudos to weddle. -damon --- Todd Last <Rubatoguy@MINDSPRING.COM> wrote: > Hello All, > > I just wanted to post a positive report about two > Vanagon friendly shops. > > Weddle Transmissions in Goleta, CA. and Cory Motors > in Santa Barbara, CA. > > I had Weddle outfit a south African 5spd > transmission with od 5th and > syncro locking differential, and Cory motors did the > installation along > with a new clutch in my 2wd Westy. > > Both vendors were courteous, friendly, did super > work, and had fair prices. > > I heartily recommend these guys. > > Todd > > '88 Westy > (Now with 5 speeds!)
