    Well if anyone cares to know more about my lame sticker situation from "NotCalClothing"; here it is.

    This was our correspondence...

    Hi,
    I ordered two of the white/copper 6" stickers from you on 12/29.
    The money was sent to you through paypal. I would like to know why
    I haven't received the stickers yet, or even a confirmation email
    from you. I tried called you today but there was no answer.

    Hello,

    Sorry for the delay. Orders have been getting backed up lately. But were
    all cought up again. All orders have been shipped.

    You should receive your order soon.

    Again sorry for the delay.

    Max @ Not Cal Clothing.

    Max,

    I still have not received the stickers. At this point I would just like
    the money returned to my pay-pal account. Unique Transaction ID
    #xxxxxxxxxx. I understand orders can become backed up; but I don't think
    its right to accept payment before being able to send out the product and
    not communicating any said delays till after I emailed you. Other
    customers that I know in PHX that received the same response from you on
    Jan 11th received their order yesterday. I should have got them today
    considering I am in the next city over.
    Andrew Hatfield



    Ok I'm sorry you feel that way..

    But ill return you the money.
    Also they were sent out already so enjoy.


    Max @ not cal clothing



    Then he sent me this...



    Here is a copy of the page showing the resolved issue.

    For both of us.



    Max
    Not Cal Clothing
    NotCalClothing.com
    Myspace.com
    Not Cal Clothing Blog
    Twitter.com
    YouTube Channel



    He sent me a screen shot of his paypal account showing a refund. Only
    the refunds he showed me weren't for my account. I emailed him that he
    refunded the wrong accounts and that I still had not received any money
    from him.

    I thought it was cool of him to refund me the money even after saying he
    had sent out the stickers. Only its now the 17th (ordered on the 29th of Dec)
    and I still don't have the stickers he said that he sent out already. I was planning on ordering
    the same stickers again to give him business again as a thanks for taking
    care of me but I don't think I will now.

    Just thought I'd share my experience with him. I'm sure once his business
    is a little more established these little things won't happen. So if
    you're in the PHX area and want these stickers I'd suggest just going
    into one of the stores that sells them and get them from there.

    I had one too many cups of coffee when I got off work this morning which
    explains this long post.

    The stickers were going to go in my toolbox. Not on my truck. I just wanted to let everyone know they may encounter some problems ordering from him instead of buying the stickers in a store. I seem to be having this kind of luck lately though. Oh well.

    So this might be kinda weird but when I pulled the IFP out of the resi, when I compared it to the rebuild how to on youtube, looks like the IFP was in the resi backwards...weird

    Been really busy with work unfortunately but I will try to get to it tonight once the GF gets home so Brax has someone to play with. Otherwise after seeing the rebuild how to on youtube...should be a lot more simple! Might spend a lot of time on it tomorrow since I have the day off, but of course after wheeling (hopefully).

    Really? I would imagine that you want the flat head of the piston the one that is taking the pressure and oil rather than a gutted out hollow bottom? Oh well when I put it back together I will put it back the way that it shows to.



    So come to find out I am not supposed to detach the resi from teh shock body....damn it will be very very hard to get the springs back on when it comes time, might have to take it to a shop for a wall spring compressor I dont think the Autozone loaners are up for the challenge. But I will say this, do a youtube how to search before you start projects lol very useful info on there.

    I ended up not going. Sara, me and Brax went to Chaparrel lake to feed the ducks.

    So I confirmed myself by taking apart the other resi, that YES in fact Fox decided to face the IFP on the resi's 2 different ways...wonder why? lol maybe the guys assembling was a little hung-over.

    The shock with oil has a few broken internal parts with some unusual rust looking stuff on some of the parts and the shock that did not have any oil in it had the IFP backwards, WOW! This should go to tell you guys that if you ever buy rebuildable shocks....REBUILD THEM!

    Ya I can post it in a bit. Its greenish brown colored and it might not be rust but for the life of me it wont come off. ill post the pic in a few, it was at the bottom of the shock bearing assembly so not too big of a deal but still.

    School all week.

    The shaft nut has basically no thread inside and puts silver (graphite?) all over my fingers.
    IMAG0240_97a1d8c27deb5c98e7ce0d6ea4173570009d5ab4.jpg

    Top out plate was cracked the whole way around...

    IMAG0242_ae4059db8094f28721ff534bee044c46d23a4ee7.jpg

    Then the pictures below are what I was talking about Chris. I dont know what it is but it is at the bottom of the bearing assembly...maybe some of the seals werent sealing allowing oil to pass. IDK. There looked to be oil on the bump stop at the bottom of the shaft.

    IMAG0244_74cefcc2a503172ddff81107606bbc880fa97589.jpg

    I emailed Fox about some of these things asking:
    1) why the IFP was placed in 2 different resi's 2 different ways
    2) why the top out plate would crack (because it doesnt come with the rebuild so it must not be a normal wear item)

    And a few other random questions.

    The top out plate isnt cracked. Looks to be a "fold" created from the stamping process.

    Why was the other one not like that? I know every part is different but I can stick a finger nail in the fold..

    Some are, some arent. They are made from being stamped out of a sheet of steel. Just like regulare washers. Some can have that, while others are uniform. Its no biggie.
