Amen!
Four shocks on the Midget, H/D rebuilds from Apple-- had to send two back,
and they are--all four-- no good. Then I heard of Peter, sent him the four
from my MGTD, and now I'm doing flat 4-wheel drifts around lamp posts in the
high school parking lot in my "flivver!"

They suck at shox.
I had a set rebuilt by them way back in 97, I got a message back with my
shocks saying BTW, one of the mounting holes is ovaled out so we rebuilt
it anyway. And both front shox blew out in less than one year.
Then I bought the A40, it had Apple rebuilts on it when I got it. They
were shot before the car was restored. o miles on those rotten apples.
In fact, I took one with me to Peter's shop, he told me it was an apple
rebuilt from 15 feet away.
My new project is proudly sporting "Peterbuilts" on all 4 corners.
I just installed the rears today.
So is Apple fine for Master cylinders?
I don't know, I don't think I want to try their $1.95 brake special
gauranteed for "life"!
