Well it APPEARS that you cannot mention certain VENDORS here, neither a link or even a name !!!, as you can see from the post below, I removed the name from the thread and it posted !!! In the process I lost the body of my message on my cliboard which was intended to help someone here, which is the purpose of these message boards, correct ????, to share information and experience and help people. Thanks YT, for wasting my time and restricting me from trying to share my experience of doing brakes on a 800 series Ford, with the gentleman asking for advice, you have effectively negated your own purpose here & I'm going to be very forward about making my point known about this. Now I am P..sssed off, now I hope I am incorrect, and if so I will certainly apologize immediately, my bad judgement, but....... if this IS the case, and that the vendor I mentioned is censored out of the diuscussion here, YT you are a JOKE, self-serving and utterly restrictive to people who come here to help someone out !!!! I find this hard to believe, but through trial and error this is what I see at the moment. Well the vendor is: V AL U BILT (2 words connect the 1st 4 letters) Oh & I'd like to use a 4 letter word followed by a 3 letter word, but I'll refrain from doing so for some reason, what I'm not sure, but I'll not stoop so low to act foolish, what is up with this censorship ? Must be about the same smug snobbish attitude I got when asking some hardball questions about manuals offered here, quality of same etc. etc., no response given, after a detailed inquiry was e-mailed: Here is a copy of what was sent to someone at YT on July 8 2004, Oh and no response: I was looking at the manual selection you offer and had some pertinent questions regarding the same prior to making a purchase. These are important details that should be addressed, so pardon my inquiry being slightly abrasive, its certainly not intended to be, it's just that there are few if any details about the manuals you offer and as a customer, I'd like some more relevant information about what you are selling. 1. What kind of materials are these made from, type and grade of paper, covers, and bindings ? Are you using an "Ibico" type spiral binding? What kind of binding is used on the larger more expensive service type manuals, like the ones listed for $199.00, ie; Ford Tractors? 2. What kind of duplication/reproduction process do you use? 3. What is the quality of the print, ie; text, schematics, and photos ? Are the photos clear and text legible or does the quality suffer noticeably when compared to an original due to the reproduction process ? 4. Are your suppliers products endorsed or licensed by any of the manufacturers you reproduce manuals for ? 5. Why are there no photos and or samples of your suppliers product to look at & review prior to purchasing ? 6. You mention "our supplier", who exactly is the supplier ? I think it's only fair that the customer knows who makes the products you sell, especially if not produced "in-house".

Today's Featured Article -
What Oil Should I Use? - by Francis Robinson. I keep seein this question pop up over and over again in discussion groups all over the web. As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
