Unhappy #IV Drive Repair needed

I have a #IV drive with 1.25 ratio that needs the lower repaired. Looking for someone that rebuilds these. Every one I have talked to says they will send it to there drive guy. I would like to take to the the person that is going to fix it Myself. Anyone have a good place? I was told that the Crew chief of Tellium is the best re builder. Anyone Know his name and number?

Thanx
Greg

Fast Boats (surprised ?)
Not to offend anyone but I have used Craig at Colabella for years. He is honest and the turnaround time is less than 1 week for my VI drives. This guy you can trust and I can say that about few in the boat bussiness. Otto (call me if you need the number on monday. You can get it from information in St Cloud Fla.)

Call Chris at Stern Drive Specialist. He is located in Canastota NY. Which is about 20 miles north of Syracuse NY. His number is 315-676 2979. I feel he is one of the best in the bussiness.

Thumbs up

Thanks for the replies!

Had to go drop off a Blow Boat trailer in port solerno on Monday for My Dad so we brought the drive with us. On Monday night we caught up with Craig Colabella. After some real good laughs with Craig and Kirk Dunteman we left the Drive with Craig.

Ed are the propshafts Big or small?

Tinkerboater/Hustler 26 I Know Chris (Great guy)He does my bravo and alfa repairs I also Have gotten most of the parts I have needed from him. We need to talk him into a oneida lake poker run!


Thanks
Greg
