i think the saddest part is that it doesnt take much more to do a job right. i just cant imagine what the person doing that job is thinking while working on it. he cant possibly be telling himself it looks fine. it just blows my mind, i've found that doing something right is easier and takes less time then doing work half assed, maybe i'm use to doing shit right cause it takes more thought for me to take a short cut then do it correctly. sorry about your truck but i couldnt give a customer his truck back in that condition.

whats funny is you name some big shops and ive heard smaller shops fixing larger shops messups..... its really bad to pay alot of money and get a hacked truck.

I have never heard of any of the shops I listed having their stuff "repaired". Also, another thing that needs to be taking into perspective is alot of people share philosophies on how suspension should be done.

ex. Look at all the Bullock Body Works trucks that have been featured as of late. They all run triangulated reverse four links with the bags mounted on the bars. Other shops may say that is a horrible setup and needs to be "repaired" when the original owner of the truck may have been perfectly happy with the setup. It's a matter of opinion.





people that take that setup to get repaired are smart people

exactly cris lol. just cuz u can doesnt mean u should

I didn't say I would do that set up on my truck......but I would like you to tell Little Shop Lackey is truck is crap because he runs the same setup. I mean air ride suspension methods are matters of opinion. Some people like certain ways and others do not.

i mean really, what can i do? if i take anything to court, ill spend more on court fees than what i would get back. and im not gonna go around looking to kick someones ass. i feel, if i can prevent anyone else going there, then i helped other people from making the same mistake i did.

Well first off, if the job he did ruined your truck you could sue him for:

1.)What you paid to have done.2.)The damages done to the truck, and the repair costs3.)If it is not fixable, then it is time to sue for the cost of the vehicle

Dude, he ruined your truck! If you don't think that is worth a claim, then I feel bad for you bro. How much did you pay to have all this work done if you don't mind me asking. First off, I don't know if in SC it is the same as Cali but I know if you aren't registered with the Bureau of Automotive Repair then you aren't allowed to work on a vehicle as your profession. I will almost bet my life he is not registered and you could walk into court and he would have to pay.

workd on the truck pretty much all day today. got the pass side suspension tore down. the reason the front didnt get hardly no lift was because there was about 1"1/2 takn off of the lower bag cup which are from suicidedoors. i started reworkn the stock control arms that way they will allow the 20 to lay.cut the old tub out and pulld the dash on the truck that way i can weld up all the holes that were left in the firewall. not use to posting pics on this forum but i'm gonna see if i can get it to work. pic with the dashd pulld and test fittn with the 20s i have around the shop. i didnt have the tub cout out at that time of the pic.
