I need for you to get in contact with me about my parts and money. Its been almost six months and I have yet to received the parts (Spindle, Hubs and bracket) I sent them to you in February and the service I paid $193.00 money order for. I have tried consistenly to email you directly and sent PM, but I get no response (EMAIL DOWN or PM TURNED OFF). I hope you still have my parts and money. Please just return my money $193.00 and parts (Spindle, Hubs and new wheel studs), then we can go separate ways and let by gones be by gones. BTW I accept Paypal like you w/3%. I will pay for the return shipment of my parts, DON'T SCREW ME.....
PLEASE RESPOND...

Well, I got my parts brackets and hubs from him a month or two ago, no problems. I'll have to install new bearing races and possibly new wheel studs, but I knew about that, so I don't have any complaints.

Unortunately he owes me money as well, from well over a year ago.

DTL, let me know what you need, I have most hubs and brackets in stock and ready to ship, both are zinc coated as well...and mine come with new races and studs installed, ready to go.

A simple search says you've posted in the past month, here alone, on:

7-2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, multiple times on some dates.

I think that falls under pathological at this point.

WOW!!

This is like a recuring nightmare. I have had these same problems a little over2 months ago. I waited six months for my parts. Excuse after excuse after excuse got threw at me. It was always something with this dude. I finally got my parts and they were not what I had asked for and repeatedly requested with no reply to the contrary. Here is a link to open old wounds. For some reason it was closed. Now you see why I started the thread. To warn others!!! Bad call on the moderators part to lock it.

He STILL owes me parts and/or money as well, I'm losing faith that I'll ever see them.

If any of you guys need brackets and/or hubs in a timely manner, please let me know..I can get you what you need.

Chris did a WONDERFUL job on my headers. Great price, great quality, and he did it in a timely manner. I think they were a week or two late, but considering he had to strip the old crappy coating off it's no big deal at all.

I hope he gets all this worked out for you guys.
