I sure will not buy from Ecklers again. They lost me as a customer for good! Every thing I bought from them had issues. The last time they sent me a powerstering ram. Instead of using a castle nut and a cotter pin they used a standerd nut and some sort of thin 22 gage push on lock washer. This could KILL someone when the nut comes loose. They do not even care for your SAFETY!! They just ONLY care for your MONEY!

Like one of the others said, stick to Paragon or Dr Rebuild. I have not personally bought from the Doc, but from what I read here, his parts are very good. I have first hand experience with Paragon parts, although I buy them through Corvette Express in Vacaville, CA. Good stuff.
