Warfab

Could anyone give me an idea of warfab's lead times? It's been about 18 weeks since I ordered my rear bumper, I knew it was going to take a while... But what's the average lead time ?

 

@ColoradoTJ is Warfab the vendor who just pulled out of Tacomaworld?

 

If you message them on IG You'll get a response eventually. Give them your order number. Shipping and communication aren't their strongest areas.

Mike of Warfab asked for all his content here on TW to be removed a few weeks back.

 

was that dustup over the swingout rear bumper, where the customer had it powder coated and then discovered a MFG issue with the wobbly wheel mount?

 

Yep. Sad ending to a great vendor engagement here on TW.

 

Not sure why anyone with skin in the game (vendor) would frequent TW unless they are masochists. Especially the 3rd gen Karen/dumpster/pile-on forum.
Half the people here act like this is their first mechanical device, never mind first truck.

 

damn, I wish they would've worked it out. They both started off being right (in their own minds) and let that show.

 

I had the same experience with them. Took them nearly a year to ship, and then shipped to the wrong address. I test fit the bumper and emailed with questions asking about a potential fitment issue. They never emailed back. Bumper then eventually got powdercoated because the appt was already set up.

After I did the install, the bumper of course had clearance issues. Finally got a response, sent in measurements. They were not very clear and told me the measurements might be wrong. I was left wondering if it was just tolerances or just my truck or if I did something wrong. It was just not clear at all. They offered an exchange or money back on my shipping dime or in person and pointed me to their test fitment policy. When I included the unanswered email from my test fitment, they didn’t change their offer.

I have since heard they had a bad run and sold some of the same bumpers as blems. Mine was not sold as blem. They never told me that they knew my bumper was known bad. I lost $400 due to their choices in how they run their business. Live and learn. I would never order anything from them again.

 

Some people lack the character and demeanor to run a business. It doesn’t mean they can’t own a business or contribute to it, it just means they shouldn’t run it.

 

After pester them I finally got a response and it magically "shipped" but we will see when it actually ships.

 

I would not be surprised at this deception.
