Talking Thank You Lonnie!!!!!!

I've had nothing but bad luck with local trans shops so,
I recently refered one of my customers to take his 2004R to Lonnie Diers for a rebuild. When the customer recieved it back and gave it to me to install and setup I was not sure what to expect.
I took it out for a drive let me tell you that it has to be the best
working transmission I've ever felt. I don't know what you did to
it Lonnie but it's F**king awsome. (hope I can say that)
From part throttle shifts to full throttle action it's just flawless
and seems effortless in doing so.
Thanks for doing my customer such a great job.

My many many thanks,
Scott Klepinger!

Cool

Sounds like Lonnie adheres to the philosophy:"Speak softly,but carry a big stick".
I've met him and he's real quiet,but it sure sounds like he knows what he's doing.
