    I still wonder if you ordered Smittybilt or N-Fabs? You couldn't have known what label was on the boxes until they got there. Glad Autoanything is taking care of you.

    OP is a punk. Do a little research before knocking down a company because of it's location on manufacturing.

    A little info for you: Smittybilt and Nfab have a licensing agreement. NFab sold the design and even manufacturing to Smittybilt. They're often made by Nfab. Hence both logos on the instructions.

    Looks like you may have to find another company now that Nfab does business with an outsourced manufacturing 'Commie' company.

    I ordered my N-Fab 3" a few years ago...with no problems. and they are still in great shape.
    T0580CC is the 3". I originally was ordering them directly from N-Fab, but if you order them through 4-Wheel parts...it was free shipping...so I got them there. They both clearly indicated Made in the USA.

    OP - did you check to see if they are mounted correctly? If I remember correctly, there is a right and left side and they barely do not fit if you have them on the wrong side.

    Also If you really did order the 3" and that was on your ordering invoice, I would have returned them.

    OP - I did my own little test and your bitch is with Anything Auto, their website is messed up. I tried to order the 3" but when you add the options for double cab and black. It comes up with the 2" part number and even says 2" underneath it, all the while saying 3" at the top.

    So please take back your original complaint. The blame is with Anything Auto. And change the title to "Smittybilt sidesteps = Chinese Junk"

    ^^ Agree ^^ Seems the OP F'ed up on the order from AA and didn't read close enough. Then starts railing on the Chinese "monkeys". Anger and ignorance are a bad combination.
