Often repeated thread! I even started one here myself last fall. In the end, be patient, good guy with great products...

Just had a terrific experience with Rebel - they raised my spindles and I also bought their bump steer kit. I didn't reach Clint the very first time I called, but he emailed me back the same day. And from there forward, he did absolutely everything he promised, when he promised. Super satisfied, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. I will be buying more of his products in the future.

Contact "flieger" here at pelican. Works with Clint from time to time.

I also have a complete rear suspension redo from Clint - I told him no hurry because I still have to drop the engine/trans and remove the one. So it will show up in the next month or so.

Clint supplied my front suspension. Well worth the wait, plus he gives you discounts on complete buys (unlike others)

I have no doubts about Clints capabilities...I have had several discussions with him & he is a great guy...I was just concerned since no reply & am hoping all is ok with him...

I also pm'd Flieger to see if he knows where/how Clint is & no reply from him either...

I will sit tight...I am actually glad to hear no one reply w/ bad info...I will knock on wood now...

thx again guys...

I have set of front wheels there and waiting for rear wheel halves to be finished. I too have called every day since the LA swap meet that he said he was attending. No phone, no e mail. It worries me that his phone, mail box is full so you can't leave anymore messages.
If anyone gets new info, please post. I need my wheels.

OMG your kidding. I thought I was dealing with a "real" staffed, store front business. I hope I am not going to loose the wheels I shipped him. I was expecting to have rear wheels matched to front wheels by now. I am really surprised, the website giives another impression.

What would the building have to do with you getting your wheels back or not?

There's a lot of vendors that started with 1 or 2 guys in a garage. I believe the iPad I'm writing this on had similar humble beginnings.

Still calling & e mailing. No communication, no wheels. If anyone has any suggestions let me know. Not happy with the lack of concern for customers. But mostly want to move forward with building wheels before the driving season gets good.
