    After the 5100s I bought from you were installed incorrectly by the dealer, I called you and you spent time with me on the phone making sure it wasn't a problem with the supplied parts. You go above and beyond--thanks for the outstanding CS Sonny.

    I haven't worked with you...but I've been impressed with the amount of effort you put into helping folks with new equipment and questions.

    Don't worry about one guy who apparently doesn't know how to play nice with others.

    Question, what is the difference in your 5100 series shocks that you sell, part numbers C477 and C478? It says they are made special for RCD specs. Bilstein lists the parts on their site as C475 and C476 and has no information on C477 and C478.

    What's the difference?

    Thanks!

    Don't worry guyz. You do so much for everyone that buy from your company. It's just one rotten apple. You have been more than helpful on my entire purchase. Keep you guyz head up.

    This is Sonny... Same shock....It was RCD that original came up with the shock and RCD is a warehouse Distributor for Bilstein and it was a perfect fit..RCD helped with the ride development...
    If you call Bilsteins 1-800 # and give them my RCD part #'s they will cross over to there parts #'s.
    Thank you,
    Sonny

    And without giving DSMS a chance to respond.....:rolleyes:
    It's hard to find good sellers of the stuff we like and when a good one is unfairly bashed, you will be called out.

    What I find unreal is that you expected an immediate response from a company 15 min. before quitting time on a Friday. :rolleyes: Then threatened with contacting Paypal. The thing is, this board is filled with TONS of good people. If you were to get screwed over, they would come to your defense faster than you could imagine. IF, you are out of line, expect to be called out on that as well. In this case, you were out of line. You should have given DSM a chance to respond to you.

    Good morning everyone....

    Sonny here....This is the funny part and I am sorry and I can not help to laugh now...

    I never mentioned your name for this exact reason so that you would not have to hear about it...

    I do a lot of business with people from TW and other Forums as well and the reason the post was made (Without mentioning your name )
    was to bring it to everyone's attention and in the future if there is an issue such as yours, that DSM has the opportunity to make it right.

    That's all...

    Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to read this post and
    after having been in the Off Road Industry for 20 years now...
    It is nice to see that people will still support the vendors ever now and then...

    Thank you and I hope everyone enjoys there Sunday....

    :)
