CO4x4, whats your deal? I think its real cool how you change your opinion of a respectable shop because of one persons complaint. And then volunteer to personally discredit them all over Colorado. Classy! It obviously looks like hirolln and the shop owner have settled the matter, so how much blame can you actually put on the shop...
And on to the WW driving of comp rigs. Have you seen them drive personally?

Sure, I'd be willing to discredit any shop that does not stand by their work, whether it be 1 or 100 customers. Now that Hirolln has been treated fairly no need. I believe that customers are #1, this country's businesses have lost that focus and I for one am sick and tired of folks passing the buck. I got screwed something fierce a few years back and wish someone had warned me, and I am not afraid to do so now.

By the way who are you, some WW groupie?

Nice screename too, grow up.

Nuff said - out.

Well come to find out WW is not out of the woods yet. It seems that someone either at the driveshaft place or ww measured my front shaft wrong. The front shaft is too long with only about 1" of travel there fore smashing the shaft into the transfercase...well you know the rest of the story. Sorry ibangedmysister looks like you still need to defend these guys. So looks like the shop is still to blame! think about what happened to the truck totally makes sense now huh!

DUDE looks like you put your foot in your mouth. I guess before you speek up next time you should make sure your ww is not to blame. I confirmed the facts with two makers of these suspension kits. they have each seen it happen 1 time....reason.....FRONT SHAFT!!!!! and ww well knows that the front shaft was wrong from the start. Am I right!!!!!!!! I guess the moral here is to pay attention to what is going on and dont let things go HALF ASSED!
You know I could be a real ******* about this but all I expect is that WW will pay for my shaft (both if needed) to be redone! tell them to expect a bill from frontrange!!!!!!!

I guess the thing that pisses me off the most is that I would have driven it after the tranny is fixed and thought nothing about it, Just to have the new tranny snap again 2 months down the road. If I would have not taken this upon myself it would have happened AGAIN. And all for a cheap *** driveshaft! WW take this how you like but I am sure you can see the reasoning behind all of this! Dont think it is a personnal bash!!!!! It is a matter of what is right and what is wrong! And as far as I am concerned this should not have been my problem to this extent. I did my part by getting the tranny fixed( which was by no means my fault obviously) now I feel it is up to you guys to step up to the plate!!!!! Now instead of responding in some childish manner grow the f#ck up and take some responsibilty for the company and its NAME!!!!

OUT

This is why I do all my own work like this. I do not have a F250 yet, but I have a 2001 Jeep wrangler with a 6" lift with 37" MTR's. I did all the work my self, and have never let anyone else touch it expect for the first lift which was a problem. Never again will I let a shop touch my Jeep or F250- when I get it unless under warr, or I don't have the tools to fix it. that sucks that your having so many problems.
