Aurora Clutch and More

Went in for a new clutch recevied very poor work

I had my 1996 mustang gt clutch replaced at this shop. It was a complete hack job that spanned 10 visits from everett to aurora and 3 seperate clutch installs that all were worse then the last. I paid almost $1000 to have him "rehab" my clutch. I bought all new adjustable cable, quadrant, and firewall adjuster among other items to fix a high clutch. I never had any vibration nor any issues their installs started introducing to my vehicle. After 2 months of constant mess ups including sending me on my way with a destroyed passenger exhaust gasket leaking into my cabin from their negligence of smashing the gasket inbetween the mid pipe and exhaust header. The minute I left his shop from the first visit I had all sorts of issues that were never happening before. I let him know before I got the job done whatever I need to buy lets do it. I want a brand new clutch no matter what needs replaced. After dealing with the owner for 2 months I demanded a refund or was going to take action in court. He happily refunded me I would learn why later on and I bought all new performance parts including a new flywheel and stage 1 clutch kit. once I got my car apart and got into his installation It was pretty obvious why I was having so many issues. If you are interested in seeing Aurora clutch and more's handy work then go ahead and check out the full story with pictures of everything from the initial shop visit all the way to the end result of me having to do the install myself to remedy the bent flywheel they caused due to a bad resurface job and general $@!#% poor no give a $@!#% attitude represented in their work. The owner talks alot even when you are telling the guy you can't afford to keep driving two cars over 2 months from everett to seattle one of which in extremely poor operating condition worsening with each visit. After calling today to let him know I fixed my clutch and it's driving well but we had some issues as he never installed a rear main seal, never flushed my tranny fluid which I would have happily paid for my car has 130,000 miles when I said I wanted to rehab the clutch I didn't mean slap the cheapest of everything in my car and shake it apart then top my tranny fluid off. He said next you're gonna ask why I didn't change you're rear end fluid which is a huge stretch the transmission is a part of a good clutch install I told him I wanted a good job and that I did not get buyer beware I thought his ratings and the initial conversation we had was enough to ascertain that I didn't want a cheap rush job.
