DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Also would anyone be interested in purpose built mounts? Such as these brackets built specifically for mounting hi-lift jacks?

The small round hole is for the bolt that the jack attaches to, and the larger rectangular hole is there for people concerned with theft, you can put a lock through the lift and the mount to deter theft.

Single bolt to mount and has tabs that go in the rails to prevent the mounts from shifting.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks

 

Its not normal for repairs to take 317 weeks, I know you might think it is based on your recent experience but I won't have to show up to a wheeling trip in an Focus

 

Yeah well at least i went! I would have rather had my truck there but that can happen another day. Maybe this weekend, havent decided yet...

 

You need a bench grinder with a fiber wheel to deburr those sharp edges.

 

I guess some are more ruff than others but they dont seem sharp at all to me. I have personally handled every set i have sold and never once have i though i was going to get cut or poked or anything.

Do you feel like it is in a specific area or is it the whole bracket?

 

I see it in the right bracket, but the burr is formed when the metal is cut; it's going to be there unless you remove it. Is the shop that's cutting your metal also doing the bending, or do you get them as flat blanks?

 

Anyone from dfw going to fjsummit?

 

I'd be more than likely a buyer.

 

The entire bracket, just a simple go around on a grinding wheel would make them look a ton better honestly.

 

Also. If anyone wants to have some fun today....

Dealer is here in Tyler, the only Honda dealer.

They have already pulled their Facebook page over it since it got 1 Star Review Hugged to Death.

 

offtopic, but you have the smittybilt rtt right? you happy with it? debating that one or the tepui sky 2 person

 

Thats rough.... i dont even know what id do.

 

Bring the heat of the internet. Honda of America is definitely going to have a conversation with the dealer after the uproar.

 

They'd have to forcefully remove me from their showroom.

 

Check out FSR too

 

Man, thats a tough spot to be in. I would be raising a fit and force the dealership to honor the deal or get some really bad PR. Def don't take the money back until you know its not yours.

 

Anyone have recommendations on a shop for an exhaust reroute? Think I'm ordering skids soon so I'll need to have it done so I can install them when they arrive later next month.

 

Some updates now... apparantly.... Jack O Diamonds.... it is getting crazy.

The GM called me to chastise me for bad reviews coming his way. He wants me to take down my videos.
Within the 2 hours since they closed they've gotten 9 generic positive reviews.
From June 17th to today no reviews except for one good one and the bad ones.
My friends are getting messages from people who know people who work there and said that they are telling their employees I am lying and Honda will not work with me.
The people who left reviews that were not so nice are getting messages from the people who are leaving positive reviews telling them I am giving them false information to influence them to give bad reviews.
People are commenting on the bad reviews stating I'm bullying a dealership and that the bad reviews don't know the entire situation.

The GM has since made statements to me that if I am not going to have a positive experience, I will not be having an experience with them at all. He tried to get in writing that I would take down my videos, but would not give me anything in writing in return saying I could take him at his word. I can’t. He keeps trying to get me to take my deposit back, so they aren’t trying to hold on to my money

 

looks like she should have it by the end of the day, per a facebook screenshot in the Jalopnik comments

 

I would be having more than the car at this moment honestly.
