Mitchell Overdrive etc

Glenn,that is a very real thing happening with the cores.Who wants to spend $80.shipping when you can just pay $50.and forget about it? It has gotten to the point on a lot of the stuff I buy if there is no core,there is no part.I have to turn it in at the time of pickup.I got a price on a Dodge transmission from the place in New Jersey I have been buying from.They usually come in a big plastic case and I put the old one in to ship back.On this one the guy called me back and said they wanted the old one first.The only reason I don't like doing that is there is always a fitting or something that gets left on the old one.He then called me back and told me that I could have one,but the core was going to be $1600,held until inspection.Some CV joint axles,alternators,and reman ECM's are the same way.You have to slide one across the counter to them before they will slide one over to you.
 
GlennC,

They are not short on cores, or shouldn't be. Sue Mitchell knows that we have 100s of trans case, bearing retainers,and shifter top cores here she can purchase at any time. There is no shortage of those cores. If she needs them, I can send her a couple pallets full anytime. She has told me that she will take us up on that when she needs them.

I know that when I needed a core for another project, it was cheaper to buy one from Berts and have it shipped from there than it was to send mine from Alaska.
