streaky Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 If you spent out 700 quid on a reconditioned gearbox ...what would be the warranty and what would it cover? My re-con R380 is less than a year old, has done around 8000km in ten months. Today I'm told that they have to drop the transfer box because the gearbox output shaft seal is shagged. I said that surly this should be covered under warranty...apparently not says the workshop who supplied it . What do Ashcrofts give for warranty on a R380? I bet they don't charge 700 quid for a re-con one either! Thx. S. Quote

streaky Posted October 16, 2008 Author Posted October 16, 2008 I saw that thanks. Ashcrofts levels of workmanship speak for themselves..... but there is no mention of any type of warranty on their site. I wanted to use them as an example in comparison to the place in Dubai that I bought my box from. No point in griping about it...I told my guys to go ahead and fix it anyway.....it just pi$$es me of when I pay more than the UK for something and yet the level of service is well below par. S. Quote
GBMUD Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Here in the UK we consistently pay more than the US price and get a service well below par too. Companies offering (and honouring) a decent warranty are few and far between. Chris Quote
