You can see the material left in the oil passage way, prevnting oil from
reaching the front.
What a waste... and the new gear with a discount was $50.

To whom it may concern:
I recently purchased one of your timing chain and gear sets for my Jeep, p/n
7818. I took my Jeep for it's first run this last weekend and on the way
home it died. I towed it back home and proceeded to trouble shoot the
problem. After a day and a half I found the problem. The problem stems from
your cam shaft gear being manufactured improperly.
This link shows a picture of your gear:
http://members.***.net/rockntj/CJ/PROBLEM.JPG. As you can tell, the material
left in the oil passage way prevents oil from getting to the timing chain
and distributor gear on my Jeep 360CID. This picture shows the damage your
gear did: http://members.***.net/rockntj/CJ/GEAR.JPG . The distributor gear
on the cam shaft has lost teeth, this after approximately 30 miles of
driving.
The new distributor gear with my discount cost me $53, including tax. The
time spent taking apart my Jeep and the time lost sitting on the trail with
no ride home are immeasurable.
I am not the only one to get one of your bad gears. This link:
http://www.froadin.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=34 further documents
some of your work.
I am extremely disappointed with your workmanship and I am tempted to make
this an issue in small claims court. I will base my response/reaction on the
position you take and your timeliness dealing with this.
Sincerely,
--James Towle

Re: Dead Jeep
Just amazing. This is apparently an 'old' issue too.
Can't someone nail those jerks that are making such a screwed up
product?
