Hi Guys.
I just spent the best part of a rainy Sunday reading thru this entire thread & I have to say that I am stunned that TCI have let their reputation go down the drain.
In autumn of 2002 I had trouble with a C4 trans that needed an overhaul. It turned out that, trying to press the Reverse/High clutch drum bushing in, I cracked the drum around the bushing seat. :banghead::banghead::banghead:. Now the fun starts!! Here I am in the middle of Germany with a C4 in a million pieces on the workbench, a cracked front drum & not a clue what to do next. A new drum in Germany was as rare as rocking horse sh**, so that evening, allowing for the time difference I called TCI. The Tech I spoke to was a very knowledgeable guy & told me that I had tried to press the '70 up bushing into a 64 - 69 drum. The difference in the o.d. of the bushing is 0.7 mm. So difficult to see without actually measuring.
Long story short, TCI rushed me a good used front drum with a new bushing already pressed in.
Get this. At no charge & they even covered express shipping to Germany!! I'm still running that drum in my C4 today. So I only have praise for TCI. But that was 2002!
Too bad those days are long gone.
