Traction 4

Post by beretta »

Hi all,

My folks were on their way up to Sydney on Saturday and their GU dropped 5th gear on the way, anyways their truck is being sent to Traction 4 (i've heard of them, but don't know them), as they were suggested by the NRMA as the best repairer for their vehicle. Need some peice of mind I guess that it is getting fixed by good operators. Just wondering if anyone has had any dealings with them and if they are any good?

Cheers,

Paul

No Bazzle, it is a 99 model brought in 2000, not going to do any good with warranty now is it?

T4 are excellent. They did the clutch in my 40 for me. Reasonably priced and top job. Richard is a top bloke too.

Yea T4 do good work but i felt i was charged a LOT for my diff rebuild. Like almost double the labour cost of somewhere else. But their service was very helpful.

Have you considered Artarmon Automotive? They are honest, take pride in their work and does a great job at a resonable price.

From memory Traction 4 are the ARB shop over at St leonards, Artarmon Automotive are around the corner. I know if i had to pick i would take Artarmon Automotive.
