Fresh oil and filter. Fueled up and about to head out! A little later than planned.

Drive safe guys. I wish I could say I'll see you there, but it's just not possible this year.Maybe I'll have to host FTE North and have you all up to the farm.

How do I get someone to address a problem?

I realize now that Riffraff is not at home to conduct business, But my order was allowed to be place without that notice available to me. I paid for 2nd day air, but the wrong parts were shipped ( way to lite to be 8 injectors ), and now I can't get any response at all. Been trying since yesterday, first package was refused as there is no way it was correct. Please contact me. order # 109329

Does anyone know who can overnight a set of stock rebuilt injectors to me, sent out today?

Welp, my RRE plans went up in smoke this morning. Headed out, got up to highway speeds, and started feeling a weird bump from the front end. Turns out the right side tie rod's worn out. Limped it back home and am now trying to track down parts. Didn't know the right side was so hard to get!

If I didn't HAVE to have the truck ready for work on Monday (I gotta do some towing for the company - long story), I'd have just traded over to the half ton and left, but with that being the case, will have to get this fixed first.

I guess that I just ordered at a bad time, I need my truck so it'll have to go back together with my worn out injectors. What a waste, new oil,filter,orings and my time.

1st. I am sure Clay will make it right
2nd. If you can't get ahold of him and you need injectors I would call Jim at Rosewood Diesel. He may have a set available

Thanks, that's why I ordered from Riffraff and gave myself an extra day by getting 2 day shipping.
I just don't see "making it right" until next week at this point and the truck is needed. I had planned it out well, I just didn't know about RRE until I was stuck in this position, an extra day won't help if I can't make contact with the seller.

It turns out I don't have the funds to buy 2 sets of injectors at the same time, So no Rosewood diesel to the rescue. PayPal will hold the funds but not make them available to purchase elsewhere. I am out of options to fix it correctly this weekend at this stage. I'm just going to put it back together with the old injectors so I can drive it.

This why I don't tear mine down until I have parts in my hand.

If you knew time was of the essence, why not call before ordering and make sure they can be sent? I can understand the frustration of not getting parts when you need them, but I sure wouldnt have torn it all down until parts were in hand. An injector job can easily be done in a couple of hours.
