Re: cpp suspension

I've used CPP parts on multiple projects and never had any trouble. I buy from their Ebay store or through Summit Racing.

The only problem I have ever heard was when someone bought parts directly from CPP, I guess they're busy at the store. Buy them Summit or eBay - No Problem, fast shipping etc.

Re: cpp suspension

Yep, I think 95% of the problems on here related to CPP were customer service problems, not the parts themself.

Re: cpp suspension

Just go through Summit Racing.

CPP parts are very well made and I have several of their parts on my truck!
I do agree with the guys before saying that CPP’s issues were all about customer service and communications.

Re: cpp suspension

Here's a review I wrote on one of their brake kits, if you are interested. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/clp-tciwbk-p13g

Re: cpp suspension

I have used both CPP and Early Classic Enterprise (ECE) and hands down, the ECE parts are much nicer and better quality control. I have had issues with a rear track bar (the arm mounting hole for the bar was too close to a weld and could not use a standard nut provided, had to get a flange nut that had a smaller nut size), brake calipers leaking, bad power booster new out of the box, rear springs that were a 4" drop actually end up at 6-7" drop (which I just replaced with ECE springs and got the exact drop). All of these issues were new out of the box issues. I have had zero issues with any ECE parts I have bought over the years. I am on Nova and Tri-5 boards and lots of issues with CPP part as well, so not just truck stuff. Heck CPP finally recalled their Tri-5 steering arm because they were breaking and you lost all steering. Luckily all the ones I read about were at slow, parking lot speeds so no one got hurt.

Take you chances....

Re: cpp suspension

I've used alot of cpp suspension parts and always turned out pretty good. I always order it through summit or ebay though.
