Has anyone else had a bad experience with Karn's overcharging for simple jobs? Say like, $100 and 10 hours to press bearings on an axle shaft?
Axle:
I don't use Jeff anymore because of that reason. He know's he's the only provider around Groton of our type of needs (gears, axles, lifts...), and he takes advantage of it. I only use him in emergencies, and then I cringe before I get the bill. I told Pete he needs to move shop down to Norwich. He know's he misses out on a lot of business because of his location. He would have charged $20 and 20 minutes to do those shafts.
To put it in perspective... When my Tom Woods drive shaft broke down, Jeff had it repaired for $400 dollars!!! I could have bought a brand new Tom Woods for less than that! And, to top it off, it broke down again a month later...
Gastank:
Go Jeff! still up to the same ole' stuff. Well awhile back I told my exhaust story which cost Jeff probably an hours time and a couple dollars in welding wire... ended up costing me a pretty penny. I will give him that he is good at what he does and is not stupid, there is a reason that place has stayed there for as long as it has. DUMB-ASS SAILORS!!!! He will pitch it too you as a good Idea... mind you he drives a H1A, ever wonder what paid for that? his wrench and his good ideas. That's about all I got for this one.

very true, he knows what hes doing and how much he can charge for it. we are screwed on location for 4x4 tech support though. thats why we all need to more or less become self sufficient for this stuff
