It was the standard rebuild. The rack rebuild must have went well because they never called me. I just got an update via email that a shipping number was generated for me. They installed the urethane bushings I sent in my box. One thing, and this is not a big deal, is the aluminum housing was not cleaned. It actually looks like the rack was never opened, except for the new bushings and new dust boot tie straps. I know they ran all the parts through a liquid cleaning process, but not the extra step of blasting the aluminum this time.

If I had to guess, it probably was not Jr who rebuilt my rack this time. I spoke with him over the phone on an 85 rack years ago that had some custom quick ratio parts put into it and he was doing that one personally. When I got that one back, it looked like a brand new rack. Again, not a big deal, as long as it does what it is supposed to. If you or anyone send a rack in, best to include a note that you want that extra cleaning step even if it cost a little extra, if you want that factory fresh look.
