Re: Andy Mark (reliable???)

There have been a few, but they have been on specific parts. The plastic omnis had trouble a couple years ago, but that has been fixed. Last year, the KOP wheels broke under certain conditions, including a lot of use, but that too seems to have been fixed. This year, some of the Toughboxes are a little off on size on some of the units. That has normally been an easy fix.

That is all the problems that I know of. Not bad, given that AM produces a lot of trannies and wheels and such like every year. Delivery time is usually pretty good.

I'd say that AndyMark is a good idea if you like reliability.
