This is a message im trying to get to Jeff Roderick of Beaverton Oregon. You picked up my t-45 tranny, shifter, and clutch on October 18. You were suppossed to leave $250 with my ex-gf when you picked it up. It is now November 6. You have left me a phone number where i cannot reach you, And made very litle effort to get in touch with me. A voicemail at 1:15 in the morning saying your really busy and cant get in touch is truly pathetic. You had no problem calling me on vacation when you needed me to co-ordinate when you could pick up the parts, so I am calling bs on that. I held those parts for you for months and offered you a smoking deal on them. And in turn you in steal from me. Yes you are a thief, that is the title given to those who take things without paying.
Jeff is the guy in the Beaverton Or area who drives a triple black 1999 SVT Cobra Convertible. He hangs out at the drag strip, cruise ins at DQ and Starbucks, and mustang shows. So when you see him rolling in his rag-top trying to look cool, realize he is parts thief. This is a message to KrazyKoncepts, AFP, and anyone else doing business with him. He is not a person which you can accept a verbal agreement from. Get cash up front. I really dont like to post a message like this, but i feel it neccesary to share the story to help others not get burned. I know I am a fool for trusting someone, but i was up in Vancouver BC when he was picking up the parts. He acts real freindly in public, and when he needs something from you, but when he is supposed to pay his debt he is as bad as a tweeker. Jeff Get in touch and pay me and i will print a retraction in this forum. Till then everyone who reads this and knows you will get to see the truth about you. I know i will probably be flamed by your friends but i really do not care. This message contains nothing but truth and you know it.

I woulnd't print a retraction when/if he pays you, I would post a fallowup though. Just because he finally makes good on it when called out and embarresed in public doesn't make it right.

there is no such thing as an honest thief.

I will leave the offer of a retraction open. Even though at this point I am 95% certain that there isnt a misunderstanding on my end, there is still possibility that I am mistaking his intent. If I am wrong I will admit it. Moroever I will post a weekly follow up on this thread until this matter is resolved. I understand a hectic schedule and financial hardships. However the fact that he doesnt even return my calls is aggrevating. I am hopiong that his friends read this and pass the message on. I really dont like resorting to embaressment, but he has left me no other alternative. Everyone else I have met in this forum have been real good people. I thought Jeff Roderick was in this category too. Aperently however, I was mistaken.

Thanks for the support guys. I really dont think its enough money to break legs over, or I'd have done that by now. I just want to Let the truth out and seewhat happens. I dont think Jeff on here very much, but his friends are sure to pass the message on. No My ex did not take the money, Jeff never paid up like he was supposed too. My fault for not instructing my ex to hold the parts till he paid, I really didnt think it was going to be an issue. Now that I have been proved wrong i feel the best thing to do is let everyone know his character so that they do not get burned in the same way. At this point its not really about the $$$, more about Jeff not paying his debt and totally being a coward over the matter. I would love to offer up the retraction and have this whole matter go away. I prefer to say good things about people who have done good turns for me, not dwell on those who have wronged me. Maybe by putting this out there someone else wont waste trust on the man. Thats all.

That's a VERY cheap price for all that you sold! I am suprised you haven't gotten the money.

My thoughts exactly Jon. Granted the t-45 needs a new 3-4 shift fork. The clutch was almost new, and pro 5.0 shifters dont wear out. Thought i was doin Geoff/Jeff a favor. Nice to see this thread getting read. Lots of Views. Good

You certainly helped him out by offering to sell those parts. His input shaft snapped completely off, and seized up in the middle of his friction disk. If not for your parts, he would be riding the city bus to work:D Once your tranny was torn apart, it became apparent that everything inside was ruined, with the exception of the input shaft (exactly what he needed!). In addition, the friction disk from your clutch was the only usable portion of that assembly. He is currently utilizing the half of your Pro5.0 that he received from your ex-gf as well(I assume you have the Pro5.0 handle on your new TKO).
I know, as I assisted him in picking up the parts from your ex-girlfriend's house. In addition, I transported the parts to and from his house and Clutch Doctor's, where the labor was performed. Having said that, I would venture that the agreed upon price was a decent deal, but, by no means, smokin.'
As for the money, there is no excuse for you to have not been payed by now. At the time of the deal, he did not have the money. However, as he purchased a mid-pipe and some IRS goodies at Blue Oval today, I can tell you he certainly has it now. Yes, he works full time (typically odd hours) and lives with his dad. His family is horribly disfunctional, which is probably why he seems to be lacking in some simple life skills. One such skill seems to be punctuality. He has the money and knows that he needs to pay you. He has your number. Allen and myself, both know where he lives:D . (I used to live on the street below his and have known him for about 13 years) Sending him a PM will do no good, as he rarely views stangnet. I don't even know what his user name is:shrug: I applaud your post on this matter, and hope it reaches a satisfactory conclusion.:nice:

I was lead to believe by Landmark Ford technicians the only problm with the trans mission was the broken shift fork. They sold me a TKO 600 out of motorsport catalog sayng that this would solve the problem as oppsed o replacing with another T-45, The other problems i was not aware of. I didnottear the tranny apart myself as I am not that technically proficient. The clutch had less thn 800 miles on it from the time that KrazyKoncepts sold it to me and installed it so i was under the impression that it was not even broken in yet. It was a $300 clutch and the shifter was a $180 unit. I modified the factory shift handle to work with the Pro 5.0 unit because I kept punching my CD player with the Pro 5.0 handle. I still have the pro 5.0 handle in my parts bin somewhere, If Jeff had payed me like he was supposed too, I would gladly give it to him. As far as him buying other parts rather than paying me that only proves my case that he is a thief. Please pass this message on to him, and let him know that 264 people hae curently viewed this thread. And everyone that he is trying to impress that sees him driving will know that he is a thief. Geoff/Jeff roll top down and head high, because the truth is out there....... You might want to trade in the Cobra for an Eclipse, Because your acting like a punk lil ricer.
