Mr. Grant, Wow, Moss Motors communications intercept abilities rival those of
the NSA! As I said, that was the advice I got from more than one person.  But
I'm glad to hear your axles are quality-made in the USA. I'll be sure to tell
everyone. My name isn't on some kind of list now, is it?-Mike

05363   802-464-8710 Record Added 04/28/08 Dear Mr. Eldred, Your post
regarding TD axles was brought to my attention. I read with some interest that
"...Probably the best piece of advice I got was not to buy the new axles that
are being offered by suppliers like Moss because they are of inferior
quality."As Product Manager, complaints about fit, finish, durability and
suitability for purpose generally come to my group. When someone makes a
serious statement like yours, we take notice. In some cases, we will discover
that we have a problem. In other cases, we can find no reason why someone
would condemn a product we offer.I have done the research, and the results are
summarized in the attached PDF. Please read through it. If you have personal
knowledge of a Moss manufactured TD-TF axle that failed, I would very much
like to hear the details, because we have no record of any complaint about
these axles. If we have a problem, I very much need to know the particulars so
we can take appropriate action.Please call me at your convenience so we can
discuss this. Best Regards, <<453-220_Axle Shaft_MG TD-TF_any quality
