I was searching ebay and saw these. Anyone ever used them, if so are they worth buying. Any info or knowledge about this product would be appreciate it.

I will be running 3/8 all the way around with AVS-7 switch-box that got for $70 and free ship from AVS. 2600 airlift bags and brackets with cups cut down 7/8 from SD. Im running on all drums now with some 20x8.5 Boss 302.

does everybody here work for SD?

bigcat842 · 04-01-2009, 11:08 AM

I will be running a 5 gal tank with 7 ports and for compressor I got one off a fuel truck from work. Its a beast!! These things run all day ever day. Not doing anything crazy with suspension just 6 lug disk brakes and 2.5 drop spindles and in the rear just a CPP bolt in c notch or save money and cut, then weld some pieces for reinforcement.

rckclmbr99 · 04-01-2009, 11:22 AM

try http://www.stylinsolutions.com/

I ordered a set of 8 SMC valves from them last tuesday, and had them by the end of the week. I tried one of the vendors mentioned in this thread first, but they did not have them in stock. When i talked to the guys at Stylin', they had like 80+ in stock.

Make sure that when you place an order with any company that you ask if they actually have them in stock, or have to backorder the parts you need. I recently got stung by this and am waiting on parts I need. sux!

Richard8971 · 04-02-2009, 11:08 PM

Hey guys, I can appreciate your feelings on SD, but the fact remains, they are a paying vendor on this site and this isn't really the forum to be venting "problems" you may have been having with them. If you feel you have been having problems, take it up with SD first and then one of the Forum staff if you feel it hasn't been handled correctly. Thanks.

It's ok, no harm done. I would still strongly suggest that if anyone here has a problem with a vendor please take it up with them to settle it. I am sure they want to keep thier good rep on here and will do what it takes to make matters right.
