Great Customer Service
The part that I received was fine, the exceptional piece was the customer service. I ended up purchasing an $8 part, and the person on the phone assisting me spent over 20 minutes helping me find a replacement part as my original (20 yr old equipment) was no longer in stock. Great folks to deal with!! I will be back!

Followed the very good instructions on the video......step by step, easy........I did have to jump to a different video to figure out the "bushing" replacement in the new case (that should have been mentioned in the case replacement video to make it easier) but it was also easy once I figured it out
