Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

I’m going to plow my way through it Friday night

 

Where at?

Just in case!

 

Reno with the wife. Getting late start after work. I figured 80 might be closed by then. I figured folks going up to ski

 

Finally a bath tub for me and @LTDSC

 

@jberry813 IG made me realize his rig sounds like a Chrysler Town and Country.

 

Not sure if anyone posted this on here yet. See you there!

2nd Annual NorCal Toy Drive | SFO Adventure Expo

 

I'm going to camp at shaver lake this weekend.
Anyone know any snow wheeling spots?
I tried looking for some trails but they close them all down

 

I think the only trail open after Nov 1 is to the lookout.

 

Thought the same thing this morning

 

Just found out why I haven't gotten a tracking number on my leaf springs yet...



The vendor never submitted my order to the manufacturer, and I've been emailing/calling for over a week now trying to ensure I'd get them before this weekend.
I'm being told that the manufacturer has them in stock, and is going to ship them out right away, but why couldn't that have already happened?

I've had two previous bad experiences with this vendor too...
First they left out part of my order, then took a day to verify the shipping weight was too low, and finally sent the missing parts using the slowest shipping method possible.
After I had my full order, I went to install it all and they instructed me to put one of the components on backwards!!!! Luckily I had the foresight to confirm their ignorance, and installed everything the intended direction.

Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
They've now fooled me three times, and I will not be contributing to their business anymore.

 

Which state is this company HQ'd in as I assume you won't say their name?

 

Pretty sure answering that question here would give it away for most people. DM incoming.

 

Screw it...
It was Wheeler's.

 

Really? Wow, I've never had a problem with Wheelers.

Sorry to hear that man.

 

Yeah, they first left out the bushings when I ordered my Dakars, U-bolf flip, Superbumps, and axle shims.
Then they tried to get me to install the axle shims backwards!
...now they take over a week to even submit the new order to Deaver.
I should have just gone direct to Deaver, but I was trying to "support local" and whatnot.

The only order they didn't mess up for me was my extended brake hoses.

 

Don't get me wrong, I know this time of year is hectic for businesses that get any influx of "black" orders in November, but all they had to do was submit the order to the manufacturer, and let the drop-ship happen.

I paid them before Thanksgiving, and only after multiple emails, and at least half a dozen phone calls do I hear that their "ordering lady" is out sick, so they had to find someone else to submit the order...

I'm fact, I talked to them yesterday, asking for a tracking number. I was told they would have to call Deaver to get it, and I'd get a call back or an email with the number. After waiting with no response, I emailed them back again this morning, just to find out they hasn't even told Deaver about the order yet.

I went to the Headstrong website today, just to see if I'd be better off ordering from them and canceling my order with Wheeler's, but I see that Headstong isn't taking orders right now.

 

That sucks!

 

I went direct to Deavers.

 

I wish I had...
