Thought for the Day

"Tomorrow I will be better than I am today... better as a golfer, as a person, as a father. That's the beauty of tomorrow. There's no such thing as a setback."

TAS65090-X or TAS65090A

TASIt has come to our attention that Kenworth has been denying their Dealers warranty on the TAS65090 unless they used the TAS65090A. Please note that the 'A' denotes a seal change. The 090A is also a more expensive gear

BAB Steering made this seal change approximately 3 years ago. Therefore you shouldn't have any problem when using the BAB part number TAS65090-X as it already incorporates the seal change.
 
Factory Accident
BAB Fontana We apologize to our distributors and their customers who were affected by the accident we had at the Fontana, CA factory on January 29. Our computers, phone lines and technical assistance was out of commission for most of three days. A special thanks to our employees at each location for the way they stepped up to handle the phones,
orders and shipments during this emergency.
 
For a first hand account of the the accident you can read the article submitted by our office manager Debbie Cornell who was trapped in the rubble of the accident.
