    Eh.

    I'd be more inclined to believe someone who comes here and straightens things out in public than someone who doesn't, owes people money and tells new potential customers "don't believe that I owe anybody anything."

    Certainly can't believe everything you read, but his actions speak pretty loud also, his words a little less so.

    I rather believe in Bob and the mods before I believe this guy. His actions or lack of it shows.

    So that's the bracket I ordered Jan 22. I called him at 830am and reached him on 2 separate days. If you need to talk to him call him in the am before work.

    Now my truck is at Ntg racing in San Diego getting expos, the carrier bracket, fox DSC 2.5s, maxtrac spindles, dirt king heim ucas installed. The expos brought on a little vibe, can't wait to try it out this weekend at hammers...not on the course obviously.

    I'm still missing stuff - I ordered and paid for a carrier bearing bracket on 12/17 and still have not received the part or any kind of purchase confirmation, just the charge on my CC from 12/17.

    Maybe @2nd screen name has yours lol

    Seems pretty dodgey to send out parts to random people rather than fill the orders by wait length

    LOL... I had the same thought. Probably need to try to get ahold of him on the phone next week. Not sure what else to do, I ordered before I came across this thread and and saw the vendor warning from the mods.

    I really cannot believe other purchasers are receiving the same item before me that were ordered after me. I am a patient guy and have had online purchase issues before but never anything quite like this. Absolutely no communication whatsoever after taking payment from me 7 weeks ago.

    The worst part of it all - 2nd screen name is saying there are still vibes with the cb drop and expos which will be my same setup, lol. Paid for a part that I'm still waiting to be delivered that apparently won't solve the issue it was purchased to fix. Awesome. :facepalm:

    He did email me back yesterday saying he would be caught up on sliders after he finishes three sets, hopefully that means mine will be done sooner than later.

    I didn't receive a response to the email I sent, just a usps.com email with tracking information stating 2-day priority mail shipment on 2/11/16. The tracking number just states "pre-shipment info sent to usps" but there is no other activity and I haven't yet received the item.

    I actually just received mine last week, right around the 3 month mark from time of order. Hang in there, it will come it just takes alot longer than I had expected. Seems like he needs to hire himself some help to crank the orders out faster.
