Here's another fun one...

Since we installed the suspension in the car, we've had some interference issues with the rear coilovers and the Watt's link mounts. At full compression, the top spring hat rubs against the mount. It's slight, but enough to be concerning, especially when I'm driving hard and leaning the car.

So we finally decided that a shorter set of springs would be the best bet. The ones I received from Jake were 10" long. Some hunting around turned up some 8" units, and we decided that those would be the perfect length. We also decided we needed a little more drop on the front coilover, so I went to purchase all 4.

Again, a little Googling turned up a dealer on eBay who carried both spring rates at a good price. It seems that the other dealers had one rate or the other, but not both. So, thinking it would be easier to purchase from one source, I ordered from the eBay place. Done, right?

Later that night, I get an email from the vendor that they were out of one of the sets. Ugh... So I tell them to cancel that set, and send me the ones they have. I then order the other pair from Speedway.

Done, again, right?

Nope... I get an email from them again the next morning that they contacted the manufacturer directly, and they had both rates, so they are going to drop ship them to me. Wait, I've already ordered the others! No! Several more emails, and I finally resolve this... Just another little hassle that starts to add up when you are trying to get the loose ends resolved!
