Not taking sides here... but just out of curiosity, did you try calling him?

Nope. He said he was going to call me & I left it at that. I don't know about you, but when I say I'm going to do something I do it!

I understand that we all live busy lives. I'm a phone splicer/lineman for the phone company & pull on average 70+ hrs a week (climbing poles, going in manholes etc...). So I doubt many people work much longer or harder than I do.

It just gets old after awhile, when time after time I'm told one thing and I get something different. I know alot of you guys like Jon & he seems like a nice guy. But at this point it's getting old and I'm considering just selling the wheels and having someone else fix the rear suspension!

Spent the entire day yesterday in Oceanside trying to get a set of wheels done for a customer that are very late. By the time I got back to the shop it was 4:30, barely made UPS, and, as you know, I pick up my daughter every M, W, F at daycare at 5:00PM, so I rushed like a mad man out of here. I'm here at the shop today waiting for a customer to come in and buy my Lincoln. I'll be free in about 2 hrs, I'll shoot you a ring on your cell phone.

Update: Just chatted with Morris. I'm sure he'll just fill everyone in. Thank you.

PS, for those of you who know me, the Lincoln is gone.

Thanks Jon. I think we both agreed that it was best just to step back and start from square one on the rear suspension setup.

The plan:

Get the car back to Driverz Inc (Jon is going to pick up the car on wed of next week from my house so I don't have to miss any work- 45 min drive each way).

Put the car on the lift & deal with the spring perch/hanger issue (order new hangers or repair as needed).

Get the new brackets from Speedtech as soon as they are avail.

Remove old brackets & re-install everything square.

Remeasure & order the correct off-set inner & outers for the rear wheels.

Send me on my way a happy customer!
