You can always tell if it is Bernie or not, as you will hear him dragging on a fag (not the sort ) in between pauses in the conversation .

Bernie, Just looking at your web site, but I cannot find a price for rebuilding a MT75 4wd, I am only going to putting a max 300 Ft for torque though it.

So a standard rebuild should do. Have you got a price for me
