If you mean Northern, there not too bad for a rebuild. No matter who you get mail order from it's best to ASK what the contents of the kit are for sure, and who the manufacturers of the components are.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Works for me, Streets. You brought up some good points. If we don't start buying more made at home stuff, we're gonna have to start importing US dollars from all the countries we sent them to. I guess I don't mind paying more to get a quality product and keeping people employed in this country.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
