    Have y'all seen the latest Addicted Off-road FB post calling out a customer? Not sure what drama I missed but but it better have been good if it justifies naming and shaming a customer

    Naw, still yota axles, when I brake too many axles I’ll swap to tons. I already have a rear steer tons axle (@ColoradoTJ rhats what that ford Dana 70 is going to be for) need to inboard the rear springs and get the yota rear steer axle in

    lol maybe

    Because it’s a Toyota axle still there are a lot of benefits to limiting the steering angle. Less likely to screw up the felt seals, less likely to blow up berfields

    Make sure your hydro steering hasn't crushed the steering stops or even the axle tube. I did that with just assist, let alone full hydro.

    Just looked it up, seems the customer is blaming them for a faulty bumper when they didn’t use proper winching techniques

    I don't blame them for calling out the customer but probably shouldn't of used his full name.

    Get this, dude has been here 2-3 months, goes to his first performance review with goals he was supposed to prepare. He didn't know where our office supplies were and didn't ask anyone. He finds a piece of paper in the trash and uses a giant red expo to write 2 goals. 1) write better goals, 2) work on a project. He said there weren't any pens in his desk when he started so he had to use the expo :bananadead:


    the job search continues :help:

    Did he call out Addicted on social media as well? If so then yeah blast him. Then again in today's society if he starts to get bashed/harassed that could come back to Addicted OR for giving customer details out, even if it is just his name

    Wanna fight? Jk lol

    Steering stops are reinforced with the top and bottom plates. And due to the fact the tires hit the springs before the stops I think I’m in the clear for now. Brian, you work at a dealership correct?
