P.S.T. suspension = (

I ordered a complete polygraphite front end kit from (P.S.T.) performance suspension technology on Friday of last week and I called in the order and talked to them and they said they had the kit in stock and it would be here sometime next week, which is this week. So I called just to check the status of the order and the guy told me " o we were going to call you" i said why what happened? he told me they have everything but the tie rod ends and that they can still ship the kit and put some other brand tie rod ends in there from a different manufacturer if I wanted. idk bout any of you guys but I want what I paid for so I said no I want the complete kit that I ordered!! and he told me that its not a problem and that they would have to order the parts and something that was supposed to be delievered this weeks is now going to take 2 weeks from today to get Im soooo bummed out right now cause i already got my spindles, flip kit, and shocks all i was waiting on was that stuff and now everything is put on hold has anybody else out there had problems with P.S.T. in the past??

I have never used them. I have had excellent luck with Performance Suspension in Arizona. www.p-s-t.com

I had no problems. The tie rods are universal. Companies everywhere are keeping lower inventories. It's the new norm! I would only accept high quality moog parts as replacements. The kit is worth the wait. The polykit on my truck is awsome.

Re: P.S.T. suspension = (

So tell them to ship the kit without the tie rods and knock the price down some. Then go get MOOG tie rods from your local auto parts store. I assure you the MOOG stuff is much better than any "off brand" PST or anyone else has in their kits. The only thing "poly" on the tie rods on their kit is the dust boots.

Re: P.S.T. suspension = (

I have a feeling that they just make the bushings and order the hardparts from other manufactures. That's just a guess though, I don't know for sure.

I've been wondering if it's better to buy their whole kit, or just buy the bushings from them and order moog hardparts separately ?
