    Not wrong.

    Basically he was 3 weeks into a 6 week King wait time when he backed out completely. So SRQ Fab charged him their standard 15% restocking fee ($400).

    Now he wants the restocking fee back.

    You can’t cancel an order, once they’re ordered, they’re ordered. So they were suppose to be shipped to SRQ

    SRQ attorney gave him a call, and it appears he’ll be giving the shocks back.

    How bad are these cracks on your bed sides? I'm wondering if I should just go ahead and repair & reinforce those areas.

    Mine aren't cracked on that area, but those bolts come loose on occasion, I figure it's all caused from the front lower corner of the wheel well area catching on the tire at full bump...

    But I have all this tearing and seperation going on in the rear of the bed all made by the added stress from the @ewxlt66 Wilcox tiregate..

    The Dusy Ershim Trail Damage. Best part was pivoting with the sliders to make the turns. Kickout worked perfect.20180825_122211.jpg 20180825_122153.jpg 20180825_122058.jpg 20180825_122044.jpg 20180825_122105.jpg 20180825_122028.jpg

    I don't think my tires hit any where in the wheel well, I trimmed a shit load back there and haven't ever heard or seen evidence of any rubbing. Maybe the cracks on mine are being caused by my shell somehow. Looks like the the back of your bed sides are completely falling apart. :eek:

    Yeah you need hangers, my friend. Archive garage or BAMF should do the trick.

    Car question for those mechanically inclined

    The lady's car:
    2004 Mitsubishi lancer with the 2.4
    It sat for about 1.5 years before we picked it up for cheap. Oil change, new battery, new tires and brakes and we're off. Ran great for 2 weeks. Started to have Intermittent starting issues. Replaced terminal ends as they were not snug. Replaced a 20amp fuse that I realized had blown (think it was a CPS but cannot confirm as I haven't found a schematic that coordinates with our box layout)
    Car will start fine sometimes, or the starter will not engage whatsoever. No spinning, no clicking, no engagement of any kind.

    I am limited to what I can do with my work hours so just wondering if I'm forgetting something obvious. It has yet to leave her stranded. Shell cycle the key sometimes once, sometimes ten times, and it starts. Just wondering what the hell it could be . Battery is fine, starter never struggles when it does get power.

    Could be a loose connection in the ignition.

    I was thinking that, but accessory power is fine, just when it goes to start it has the issue. Would the entire ignition assembly be one unit? Or maybe there is a separate relay? I'm lost and the guys at vato-zone swear it's a starter, but from my experience starters will spin and fail to catch and then are shot, not have intermittent issues. Like, they have symptoms of failing, not they work perfect sometimes and not at all other times
