bloody roofing nail. Right in the sidewall, plugged it up last summer but I don't really want to go 65 for 4 hours on a tire plug and a weak tranny.
Hi,
I'm new on the site. I keep seeing mention of Tom's. Could you please give me details on who he is, and what he does.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve.
There are two Toms that are SVX mechanics with very good reputations.
However we are both in the East.
Me (OT) in West Virginia, outside Cumberland Maryland, and Young Tom (YT)
now in New Jersey.
There is a link to our site in my signature, and YTs site is
"AWD website coming soon"
I will pm you with BOTH of our cell #s.

I think I'll be wanting a 4.44 swap in the near future. Too bad I'm way down south.
