Re: LMC stepped up!!!
You're lucky you live close enough to walk in. Used fuel tanks can't be shipped.

I had one shipped for my Land Cruiser from GA to KS without any issues. It sat out long enough there was no gasoline odor. The seller and I discussed how to do it prior to the attempt. I was not in a hurry and we worked out the time frame. Ship them as auto parts. There was nothing hazardous left when we were done. Yes, I could have lit a match and dropped it in there........without it going BOOM!

Re: LMC stepped up!!!
I shipped a carb back to the manufacturer and honestly I could smell the gas fumes but they didn't tell me anything at the post office

Re: LMC stepped up!!!
I wonder would they would have done if you lived 800 miles away and shipping costs were involved ?

Re: LMC stepped up!!!
it was leaking at the neck were it goes into the tank. they ran that part number and found 2 tanks had been returned in 2012 for leaking, that helped my case for the return.

Re: LMC stepped up!!!
I received a box of stuff from LMC, and included was a tail light lens that was broken. I emailed them a picture of it and asked what we could do, and they immediately shipped another. They didn't ask for the bad one back. I was impressed with their customer service. I know there are stories about bad stuff from LMC or stuff that doesn't fit, but I've also had bad stuff from Napa, O'Reilly, and Autozone. I'm not convinced LMC is bad.

Re: LMC stepped up!!!
Over the years, I have had nothing but good luck with LMC when a return was involved. I think that they do their best to provide good customer service.

I think the complaint people have with LMC is their lack of involvement in the vehicles they sell parts for. Not such good customer support when it comes to info needed up front before the purchase. All they seem to know is what it says in the catalog, which you can read for yourself. I don't like some of their exclusive parts, such as '72 door panels. They are replacement quality. Why not make restoration quality? Pretty much everything else reproduced is made to replicate the original part. Why on earth make a door panel that is almost a reproduction, almost a replica, but only similar? That's the kind of stuff JC Whitney would sell. That's great to have them where you can drive in and buy the parts. I wish I had that. But, for the rest of all the people they mass market their catalogs to, it sucks to get the wrong thing, damaged, won't fit, or an inferior part. Some of that could happen with any vendor. That's why I'd buy from someone who "knows" the part they are sending is exactly what I need. Not only has the answers, but knows what to ask if I don't.
