I talked to Howard of Howards Converters and he said he will honor any previously bought Fuddles and if you want to purchase one for the first time he will sell you one. So let the ordering begin

This statement I will confirm is true. I too talked to Howard for a customer of mine. I will say that he was a super cool guy and knew what he was talking about. I've been doing this for a while and usually know how to weed through the BS. Also talked to him about a few other things and we agree it is a small world. For all the fuddel guy's I guess you now have your solution to resolve your issues!

I need to get my Fuddle fixed or replaced!!! I have also tried to contact Fuddle and Cody is right!! It's like he....well I won't say that but ya'll catch my drift. This lockup noise thats been here from the get go needs some attention. Thanks Cody for the new contact info for our verters!!!! I'm not going to get on my soap box with the Fuddle saga, but I will be getting this one fixed. Fuddle has dafinately taken a turn for the worst. Oh, BTW Vince, I will be contacting you for a transmission for my truck. I posted a ses problem and I think I'm not going to try and rebuild this one again....just buy one from a reputable shop.

Neither did I !!! The way they (Fuddle) talked, they made it sound like they made the tc's inhouse. Call up, order, take the order to the back and boom, the guys in the back get busy. Hell, a lot of people on this site could be dealer. Anybody can someone elses product.

I am happy with my Fuddle. I had to wait about 2 months for it to get here after I ordered it but it wasn't a big deal because I had to get some other stuff before putting the stall in. They told me up front that there would be a wait because the hp/truck had just came out so I didn't really care about the wait.
