Exclamation Went to Moe's!!!

Thats all I can stand, I was put off by shock whse too long. First a week ,then end of april, and finally the last straw. Latest e-mail had my bilsteins in at the end of may!!! Went too moe's and stipulated any back orders will be cancelled. I'm hoping they have a set somewhere for me! This is rediculous. I posted that these struts were gonna be hard too get. But threw the extra coin moe's way. I gotta get this done before bike week. Otherwise the whole trip would suck with my front end bobbing up and down all the way too Ohio.
besides I wanna show off the girl in carlisle in july.

Too bad Shockwarehouse couldnt take care of you being they are a sponsor of this site and all.
\Moe's on the otherhand...His prices are a little better than others, but at the same time.....I've noticed his prices slowly rising to everyone's level.
He's still got one of the best deals for Rancho quicklifts and Bilstein lift struts anyways.
As much as I'd like to get the Rancho's I think I'm gonna settle for the Bilsteins???? We'll see.


So, what exactly did you order up?

Keep in mind Moe's doesn't charge for shipping.
I was on another site the other day and they had pretty good prices, went to checkout and not only did they charge for shipping, but they also had an addition oversize handling charge that was more than the shipping. IMO, Moe's generally has the best prices for the stuff we buy for our trucks.

Moe's prices are always very competitive. Shipping on the other hand can be slow at times.

True, and getting calls returned can also be sketchy. But he stands by his product and will sort out problems when needed for his customer.

Sometimes Bob is easier to get in contact with via email rather than through the phone. At least that is what I have found over the years.

Totally agree, the emails don't seem to slip through the cracks and appear to be a more reliable way to communicate. I still have parts being shipped and Bob was very responsive in getting the tracking information to me this time.

I just ordered new shocks and shackles and ha them in under a week. Going to order m header bolts and ps y pipe from him this weekend. Guys have to remeber not everything he sells comes directly from him. A lot of the items are manufacture direct to your house. This can cause it to take alittle longer but cant beat free shipping.

So, what exactly did you order up?
Bilstiens 5100's ,sorry I posted right before I split for work.They were back ordered through may b/c of a quality control issue. In other words some one screwed up and forgot about a couple million trucks needing struts right about now. imo they never made a replacent alternative so the bilstein's sold like hot cakes!! I would not be surprised to find a sorry but your purchase has been back ordered once again.Post in my e-mail.
I like the free shipping and the extra coin I can live with cuz I get a level as well. Pretty much for free if you go by napa prices for these struts btw.
YES!!! Ha ha ha I'm a happy boy!!!
Date Ordered: Tuesday 11 May, 2010
