whomever rebuilt the box screwed up. 2.5 turns lock to lock sucks and is incorrect.
Your old box was not enhanced to get it to turn tighter. A stock box turns farther than the birfields will allow..
It is most likely their fault. Disconnect the pittman arom from the box or the Drag link from the pittman arms and test the turning radius.
They should stand behind their product.
Wanting a full refund (or a properly rebuilt box) is not unacceptable.
Giving an honest representation of what happened to you is not unreasonable. Just DON'T LIE or emblish the facts..
Norsk,
Take care of the issue w/ discountsteering.com RIGHT NOW. Because if you or they drag feet for any length of time, you will not be able to contest the charge on your credit card.
You paid for a functional FJ60 steering box. An FJ60 box has 4.5 turn from stop to stop. You received something that does not have 4.5 turns and is not an FJ60 box (from a functional viewpoint). You did not receive what you paid for. They need to give you the right part or refund the money. If they cannot do that before your next CC bill is due, then you need to contest the chage.
Sorry to sound so extreme, but I got burned by a similar situation a while back, where a vendor kept saying they were gonna ship me the missing parts, but ultimately (after the CC charges were paid) never sent me what I paid for. Now I know to guard my CC rights more seriously.
I don’t have lots of play in the wheel, but lots of years of leak. Is west tx still the place to go for rebuilds or is it RedHead now? Is there a rebuild which addresses just the leak or is it all one big rebuild?
@TRAIL TAILOR had really bad experience with Red Head and tossed round an idea of doing rebuilds in house. Not sure if he's had time to do it or not but that's who I'd go to if he is.
Get an 80 box throw a sector shaft from a 105 series, rebuild kit, tada!good question.....I'm in the same boat with my 62.
Any new shops on the block?
