Reasons why Northwest Offroad sucks!
I`ve been having this noise over bumpy roads for the past 6 months and now I think I found it. While replacing my rear shocks I noticed this.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...R/000_1455.jpg I put the spring back on, I have no choice until I get a replacement but it will not be from NWOR. I won`t even bother them about having this replaced. I`ve been in a similar situation in which the 1" lift rear leaf springs they sent me lifted my rear end 4". They would not take it back and insisted it was 1" lift. :bang: |
Here is the the broken piece.

Geez that sucks dawg, hope you find a good replacement, sorry for the trouble.

Damn, Jboy.
How did that happen? I'm thinking about going higher soon in the rear. So that spring you bought was actually a 4" lift spring. But you were looking for only 1". |

are those springs from NWOR? it's suprising the broken piece stayed in there. |

NWOR = No Warranty Or Returns
this is from like 5-6 years ago... lol...... |
Crash wont touch anything from NWOR anymore either. We've had bad luck with them and their stuff also I got tired of having to keep going back and fixing it.
|
I've never had a single problem with NWOR. Oh wait, the only thing I ever ordered from them is the catalog... :pat: Nice catalog though...
|
I've had them give me the wrong parts before, but when I took it back they apologized and made it right. There are 2 widths of U-bolts and they forgot to ask which size. I've also bought my steering stabilizer, pitman and idler arms there. Oh, as I think about it I've only had the idler arm for something like 8 months and it's loosening up. But they are always friendly and have taken back parts I mistakenly bought.
(BTW- I'm local so I personally walk in and buy the parts.) |
