Angry lifting problems

I don't really have any specific questions except that I was wondering if anyone else had problems with their lifts other than me? First of all, the blocks didn't fit. They were set up to be used on a vehicle that has leaf springs under the axle. No problem, just flipped them over, but then the seats were not the right size. So being in an emergency situation, I just bored them out a little bit. Problem solved. Today I went to work on the front end and neither of the brackets fit. Luckily my other truck is out of the shop, so I left it up on the jack stands and called it a day. Has anyone ever installed a Superlift kit before? If so have you had any problems? Monday I'm heading back to 4 Wheel Parts to make sure they gave me the right lfit. Maybe if I complain enough, they will knock a little off the price of some new 35's.

i know i had the problem with the blocks having two small of a hole before, dunno if ford used different size pins. As to anything else not fitting properly, sounds like groubds for some serious complaining to the store and superlift.

Well, I manged to get the other brackets on this morning. (went through 3 cutting discs on my angle grinder ) I've already talked to the people at 4 Wheel Parts and they told me to come in and we would "work something out." Superlift has yet to get back to me.
