Something else to consider.... If she is game, have her come WITH you when you plow. Good opportunity to spend some time together.

Maybe if she did the shoveling at each account she would like it better


Good luck with getting the truck up and running (and passing inspection). As big as a pain those inspections sound to be, they saved ya money in the long run by finding those broken springs in the first place.

Give 'em a call, and see when they anticipate being able to ship you your parts. If they can't give you an answer, or, give an answer you don't like, get your money back, and order from somewhere else.

The only reason I got the from there was the price. Would be so hard to get that price from someone else unless they can atleast match the price, but I don't know how to find out if other companys will do that or not.

Did send them a E-mail asking them how long it would be, being as this is my only plow truck and I'm unable to drive it now

Call them. Its easy to ignore an email......

Check some of the other companies that sell a similar spring, and ask them about it. Don't tell them that the ones you really want are on inter-galactic back order though...... See what they have to say.

I just found a place that has them in stock and have match pricing + will bet it bt 1 dollar. Also any thing over 200 take 20 dollars off, but not sure if they will do both for me, but can't hurt to ask any way. Will call both tomorrow and let you know tomorrow night

Are we talking about two or 3 weeks from the time I ordered them ot 2 or 3 from now?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I sent 4 Wheel Parts a E-mail to ask them about my parts and this is what they told me now. What a joke this Company is in my Book. If I had a Company like that and large I think or I know I would do what ever it took to keep and make apeople happy so they would order from me again. I would send them another Leaf spring set even if it cost more just to make them happy.If I didn't have the parts in stock I would post that in the add OUT OF STOCK. Don't let someone order from you and then send them a E-mail telling therm that the parts are out of stock , but we will have them in two or three weeks. Then get another E-mail saying it will be 4 to 6 six weeks.

I just can't beleave that Super lift don't have Leaf Springs to sale them. In my Book when and if I ever do get the parts from 4 Wheel Dive I will never order from them again. They S**K and I sure don't mind telling everyone here about them or there poor service
