Total Cost Involved, but not totally the parts needed !

Posted by admin  Published in Projects

banner2 Alright, I usually don’t jump on a company for a mistake, especially when they make good on it, but this is the second problem with a product from TCI in as many purchases from them. They are 0 for 2… and I am not happy.

The first was a missing weld from the top air spring hat on my Mustang II suspension kit. I could not even weld it as the surrounding ring restriced access. So they shipped me a new hat kit problem solved.

Tonight I go to bolt on my sway bar kit, and some of the bolts are missing, a spacer for the air spring control arm is not there, and the sway bar is the wrong one. On each end of the bar is a 1/2 NF threaded holes, but the heim joints and bolts are 3/8″!!! It’s bad enough I get no time to work on the truck, but then have to deal with parts that don’t fit, really boils my blood.

My last complaint is the horrible instructions included with most of their parts… they have photocopied images which are washed out and impossible to use for reference. When installing my rear suspension, I had to call their tech line and have them email me pictures so I could see how to install the kit. The tech I spoke with admitted the directions left a little to be desired.
