can't go wheelin

[drewclare25]

had everything ordered for my lift, everything was set to get here on time so i could go on a camping trip on tuesday....now my shocks and springs from DAP aren't going to get here till monday...MAYBE, because they didn't get shipped out till yesterday

and i don't mean to diss DAP because i know they are a good company and steve is great...but i'm just frustrated because now i can't go on tuesday

[smileyq]

Sorry to hear that man. If you get somebody to help you Monday you can probalby get them on if you take the day off ;-) Be sure to post pics either way.

Take Monday off and do the switch Monday, it is not that long of a job.

can't get off monday, beacuse i already took tuesday and wednesday off

and the stuff will MAYBE get here monday

I called UPS to see if we can get them there faster- they STILL don't have a tracking number I can refer to. The warehouse backed up and UPS picked up late- They'll be calling me in the next few minutes to see how we can get this stuff to you. If you get it Monday, can you have it on in time for leaving Tuesday? I need to know what to tell them so we can figure out if we can fix all this...

[drewclare25]

if by some miracle of god i can get off work some of the day on monday then i can prob do it, but i dunno how that will work out.
do they not deliver on saturdays?
and what about them going as far as they can and me goin to pick it up?

[Muddy Oval]

I just got off the phone with them... they don't even have the stuff in their system yet. They are not willing to upgrade the shipping to get the stuff there faster, even though they picked up late yesterday and the stuff isn't getting processed in their system today. I checked into relabeling as 2nd day air and they could- for $200. The stuff won't be there in time- the only way to guarantee stuff like that is to do 2nd or 3rd day guaranteed shipping and order earlier. I can kill the order if you've changed your mind.
Your truck can't make it on the suspension you've got?

[drewclare25]

naw my truck is stock right now.

and i wanted to order earlier but it was the weekend, the monday before the 4th, and the 4th...so you guys were closed. and thats COMPLETLEY understandable.

but i meant to get a total from you when i ordered but i forgot...how much am i paying for this shipping thats not even working right now?

[Muddy Oval]

I'll re-work the invoice and mail it to you- I'll pay the shipping since it got all buggered up.

[drewclare25]

well that would be great. do you know the phone number and the name of the person you were talkin to at UPS?

Once you get the parts, it should be a simple job. Just spray some loosening compound on your shock bolts/nuts to ensure they will break loose. The same with the shock tower nuts and the sway bar bolts/nuts.

If everything comes off like it's supposed to, it shouldn't take you more than 2 hours to do it even if this is your first time. Good luck!

Man you should be glad there is a guy like Steve to work with. Steve I'm very impressed with your desire to make your customers happy. Outstanding man!! I wish there were more like you.

[drewclare25]

i know...steve is the reason i'm not mad.
if it wasn't steve, or he just wasn't trying then i would be mad

i'm just...let down by ups cause i really wanted to go on this camping trip with abunch of jeeps and show them what was up

[Muddy Oval]

We have a rep at UPS we deal with since we have a coporate account. When they pick up late and there's no overnight or 2nd day packages in the pickup- then they leave the stuff until the next day to process. Regular ground shipments with UPS are not guranteed as to how long they take.
Whenever ordering anything time sensitive, you gotta let us know. We ship faster than most places, but there are times when things can be delayed a day or two- especially when you start to combine circumstances.
I'm trying to get in touch with a friend in Williamsburg to see if he has a spare set of springs that'll getcha through the week until you get the new ones... just can't seem to get him on the phone. If I remember correctly, he has some 2" springs in his garage.

[drewclare25]

wow that would be amazing!!! are you talkin bout that guy you were tellin me about on the phone...mike mason?
