    If they have negative arc now then replacement should be in order. What springs are you running now?

    Oh now I remember reading all of that. I assume everything is getting worked out and you are getting taken care of? Knowing that it was a messed up order I can understand changing back since they are having trouble holding up the weight of the truck

    & yet you can't shut the fuck up about it, so let it be known how you really feel... Look I'm not a vender, just a guy that stumbled on a MOD that seems to work for everyone but you & granted not your fault, MY fault, not hiding it , not denying it, you had to wait, I'm sorry, guess I shouldv'e told my mom to die on her own time for your sake right ??...All you were missing was a couple spring clamps that most likely wouldn't matter anyway but this is how you feel.... so be it...

    Your PM to me...



    doug im not bitching. just asking a question. if I was I would have every right to. I would love you to prove me wrong but after waiting 5 months for these springs and not being complete I don't think you will send me anything.

    One more crack like this & maybe your wish will be granted

    yes doug that's how I feel!! i bought them in December of last year on the buy and sell page as complete and ready to bolt in. i sent you money and you called when you got it and told me you will ship them right out. 3 weeks later when i asked you said there was a problem with your shipper you will get them right out. 3 weeks later you tell me there was a another problem with the shipper and you will reship buy the end of the week. a few weeks later you tell me there was a screw up and you need my address again so you can ship them. a few weeks go buy again before you send me the po #s and tell me keep an eye for another package with the squeak pads and clamps in it (that were supposed to already be on the springs, and i still have not got yet 6 months later. $400 for the springs and i have to take them off after only 2 weeks on the truck Doug im sorry to hear about your mother i really am but i did not bring her into this.

    Maybe not , her death isn't your problem, its MY problem & all the issues that go with it, I told you the other day it'd be a couple months before I could get you a full refund.. You think any vendor here or elsewhere would offer that to you ?? fuck no they wouldn't & before you say "well they wouldn't ve fucked up." Thats laughable, because EVERY vendor here has hit a wall at some point Im betting , but you just couldn't contain yourself, In reality you are 1 spring away from where you wanted to be, I could've just sent you 1 spring & put you thru the hassle of adding it, but because you HAVE had to wait & I sincerely felt bad & when I realized I left one out I figured I owed it to you to go above & beyond, so you'd have those dirty piece's of shit plus all your $$$ back too, yeah thats a horrible deal isn't it, I've admitted my mistake made you a more than reasonable offer, even was honest about it being a couple months off befor e I could & if thats not good enough , well then tough shit (there I said it) thats the best I can do..
