Default How is there no Procharger rebuild Stickeys ???

I am new to Procharger and my interaction with them and there Prices for servicing the Simple unit is ridiculous. I am in the process of putting my unit back together after replacing all bearings and seals. Procharger pricing is uncalled for. Just wondering if Procharger has threatened such threads to keep a lock on servicing ???

this guy https://jonbondperformance.com/ sold the parts and even helped my buddy over the phone when he rebuilt my Maggie....seems to be pretty helpful if you choose to DIY

Procharger will not sell you parts.. Procharger charges $110 for inspection and then another $330 to relocate oil slinger . That's a 5 Min job for them .. That's $100 a minute when all said and done

the guy I posted will sell you the parts...

seems they can name their price since not many people are willing to DIY.......most places will use the inspection fee towards repair if you decide to go forward...guess thats not the case with them
