    This fab shop is a mess and I would highly suggest ordering from another shop if you’re looking for armor. Ordered a rear swing out beginning of june and have been told multiple times it’ll be done this week.

    They must not have enough capacity and people for all their orders.

    I got my rear high clearence bumper pretty quick about 4 weeks if I remember correctly. Altho, that was about a little over a year ago so things could have changed. 6 months is too much, sounds like they need to hire another employee or two.

    When people complain about my shop being backed up I want to tell them to come down and start helping..

    Everybody wants to order from a fab shop
    Nobody wants to work at a fab shop

    Everybody wants to eat at a restaurant
    Nobody wants to work at a restaurant

    Everybody wants to order stuff online and have it delivered
    Nobody wants to drive a van around delivering stuff

    I member berries... and you are correct.
    I listen to the thousands of "engineers" who post here, but nobody wants to do the math, do the tests, etc. However, they know they are better than the real engineers...

    Their shop has grown a lot in popularity over the past year so not too surprised. I ordered their original hc rear in 2021 and the lead time was maybe 5 weeks and Joe also tailor cut the bumper to match my cut fenders at no additional cost or impact to delivery. I had a great experience dealing with him but as mentioned a lot can change in a years + time.

    Seems like to me there is a difference between complaining about a shop just to complain versus complaining about a shop listing 5-6 week lead times and taking 5X that. OP’s experience is of course anecdotal but this isn’t first in the industry for this type of business practice.

    I just ordered front and rear bumpers on black friday, lead times are listed at 8 weeks for the front and 10 weeks for rear. Hopefully isn't any longer than that.

    Respectfully?
    Why not order if you don’t like the lead time?
    The caveat; if that’s accurate, of course.

    Buy a welder for less than what your rear bumper costs and do it yourself. Better then moaning on a forum

    Random stuff. Oh! and converted to non ADD 4x4.
    Doesn’t look like moaning to me, more like a PSA that his lead time has not been fulfilled within the timelines multiple times.
