    Doesn't mean it was properly packaged...They just looked at the label, saw the box was intact and weights were proper. :rolleyes: With the box being completely blown out my guess is it wasn't sufficient for what was being shipped!

    Your package was probably in one of those chain reaction crashes.

    Def not, I worked for UPS and the drivers and airport package handlers are way more careful and generally get chewed out if they fuck something up.

    Have a friend back home who works for FedEx and they have a time quota and have a special place at the unloading terminal for re-packaging shit they broke from poor container packing (that's how bad they are). Stuff comes out of boxes and falls to the bottom of the containers and they don't even bother finding the right ripped package they just shove it in a broken box and tape it up (that's how you get random shit in your box sometimes).

    My company has had several major issues with Purolator (an adjunct of UPS) to the point where we try to use FedEx whenever possible. That being said I'm sure your story could be true.

    Hopefully it landed on his toe. Probably wouldn't have broke then.

    2019 f250 6”lift 37s deleted 1997 T4r, tons and 4ds
    1997 t4r has super duty axles, 5.13s locked front and rear. 3 link front with 14" kings. Rear 63s.
    I ordered some rims and opened a claim through the shipper. The first 3 of 4 were either damaged from a box ripping apart or a defect in powder coat. The sent 3 more and i got to pretty much keep the other 3 after the amount of time they said i had to hold on to them. I bought a extra rim and made 480 off the whole ordeal. The may do that due to being 4k instead of 700 like mine was but never know may have a spare parts SC

    If I get the refund and sell this one I will sell it as a complete kit as I bought it, not parting out bolts
