First Choice woes

Jim,
Are you questioning First Choice as a going concern? I may be careful before I did this.
Customer support I received from them was excellent and the rototiller I purchased is top quality.

Remember the Implements that First Choice had MFG by Midwest were MFG to First Choice wants and standards. It is apparent the Midwest progressed beyond FC and FC lower standards. Ken take Kioti they have continued to improve their products, why shouldn't Midwest do the same. FC has not shipped any dirt working or Landscape equipment since Midwest. We have heard only words but have seen no products for 2 years. FC has been searched the World to find a MFG that can produce the quality of Midwest and they have yet to find one. Midwest it's the real thing!

FC is definately growing and they are nice folks. No questions there.

<font color="blue"> And just to set the record straight, Ken, FC does not buy from Midwest any longer by Midwest's choice, as you are well aware. And also for the record, I sincerely hope FC can continue as a viable option for its customer base. </font>

I understand there was 2 sides to the who terminated who story--I dont see that it really matters. As long as both companies are doing as well as described. Some of the big boys better be looking over thier shoulders! From what I understand, BuySmart (First Choice) has a astounding number containers on the inbound flow chart currently, and thier business is up times 3 from about year ago. a few of those containers are mine to be delivered in the next few weeks--Ken Sweet

At this point I would be very interested to know what all 3 holes look like( both tube holes& pivot plate hole). The pivot hole has to be worn a lot . If you are going to re-bush make sure that you do the pivot plate hole also. There are many ways to repair things and from what I have seen here all suggestion are good ones.
