So ive been pretty fortunate i have a few options, but im defiantly not gonna go to USC, my family lives in denver area and my wife's family is from looserana so maybe one of those areas but my mom, uncle, an aunt, and two cousins went to Miami-Miller so that's the obvious choice... personally i just wanna build monster trucks and tube frame chassis for ultra 4 buggies, rock, crawlers, roundy round cars, and big ghey mud trucks, but nobody seems to understand why lol Posted via Mobile Device |

So the machine shop who assembled the motor and dynoed it for 20 minutes "forgot" to put any gear oil in the blower snout, it ended up screwing up the 4 of the 6 Teflon strips on the rotors, knocking the barrings out of balance, and fried the gears....
No worries though, Don Hampton at Hampton Blowers came to the rescue and fixed it free of charge! (900 dollars in parts and labor). Oh and he even called the machine shop and let them have it! Great dude and awesome customer service i really hope i have an excuse to put a blower on another motor just so i can use his product again! Blower Timeline: Figured it out on Sunday 11/18 Sent it to him monday 11/19 He got it on wendesday 11/21 Sent it back to me with tracking number 11/23 Scheduled to be at my door Tuesday 11/27 |
Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
WHOA!! Words could not fathom the amount of anger I would have had. I would take the truck and run over the machine shop after that

HA yeah right as if there is such a thing!!! I just need to adjust the rear nitrogen shock pressure cause if you romp on it it will just squat real hard till you let off. Theres still alot of testing and tuning prior to a video lol. Fab wise it seems to be holding up really well the frame is really stout and for how big it is the weight seems really balanced out! |
Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks
Holy hell. I'd be pissed for sure. Glad that Don stepped up and fixed someone else's mistake. That's customer service that I love to hear about. Post a youtube video so I can drool some more. I wish I had half your talent.
Loved the turkey picture. Every guy at my plant wants one now. Better get that patent quick! Chris Posted via Mobile Device |
