I guess the only way to get anything done with Brian at Wabfab is to publicly out him and his business practices. I got a package today and miraculously did get my hubs back. After all this time and all this energy spent it was just not worth it for him or me. At least he was nice enough to put a nice little note on the hubs for me. Who knows if these hubs are even operational at this point. I will be sure to inspect them very carefully before putting them on any vehicle that is going to be transporting me and my family.
I believe a picture is worth a thousand words and really shows what type of person brian is.......

So what date was your order off the website and what was your invoice number?

Brian, I don't have time for your childish games. Best of luck to you in your business endeavors, you surely will need it.
For everyone else, don't believe a word Brian says, he has consistently lied to me and changes his logic to suit his own needs. Again, I am not the first customer to have these type of problems. If you don't believe me simply google "wabfab customer reviews". Brian is the type of guy that will never find fault in his own actions. There could be a 100 people telling him the sky is blue but he insists it is purple.

My previous experience with Noah was less than stellar considering he never ordered anything, so I should have known better to entertain helping him. He emailed me on 4/26/11 and wanted to send me a set of Aisin hubs for a customer to get them refurbished. I told him to order off the website as it has all the details. Clark ordered a refurbishment of his Aisin hubs on 04/26/11 and apparently Noah was doing some other work for him as the return shipping address was to him.
On 4/27/11 a class 5 Tornado hit Tuscaloosa. I informed Noah on 4/28/11 that these would be delayed indefinitely as I had more important things to do obviously. Between 4/28/11 and 5/10/11 there was a barrage of emails from Noah wanting to know when the hubs would be done, hubs that he never ordered, but Clark did. I had had enough of Noah so I emailed Clark about the issue and he was more than understanding that I had more important things to deal with currently than a set of hubs. He had even flown over Bryant-Denny stadium during flight school. I finished Clark’s hubs and shipped them out via UPS 1Z313R610395083020. Shortly after this Noah started saying he was going to send me some of his Aisin hubs to refurbish.
Fast forward to 2012. Late February Noah started asking me again about refurbishing a pair of Aisin hubs for him. He mailed me some hubs but they sat at my shop until he paid on Aug 1, 2012 when he sent me a PayPal, as he never ordered off the website like a customer, but sent me an individual PayPal. On Aug 10, I tore his hubs apart as I work on things for customers in receipt of their order and since he never ordered anything off the website these were worked on when other Aisin hubs were finished. I had a lot at the shop at the time so I took care of customers first. The hubs Noah sent were dirty and in decent shape, but the internals were far from functional as required for a refurbishment as noted on the website, again where he never bothered to order from, parts were bent, busted and even a hub dial cracked. He never bothered to disclose any of the damage to the hubs. On Sept 10 he wanted them finished and expedited shipping, so I cancelled his PayPal, fully refunded his money and boxed the hubs up for return shipping. The hubs had been completely disassembled, degreased, cleaned, the old crappy paint blasted off, the bent parts fixed and reassembled with the busted hub dial. I then had to block Noah on my personal FaceBook and my cell phone after another barrage of messages threatening me and ranting about his hubs.
Noah then decided he wanted me to finish them, sent me another hub dial, but still never ordered off the website and never bothered to pay for the refurbishment of his Aisins or the extra effort of fixing the less than functional Aisin hubs he sent me, thus the hubs were never finished. After getting his threatening emails, copied above, I boxed up his hubs and the extra dial he had sent and shipped them back via USPS Label Number: 9407 4036 9930 0003 7480 22 on Oct 15, 2012.
Noah is “that” guy. He wants above and beyond help and service, but wants it done on his schedule, on his terms, annoys the crap out of you to get it done and doesn’t want to bother paying for it. To date Noah still has no order off the website, thus the reason he could not provide an order date nor an invoice number, nor has he paid for the work done to his Aisin hubs.

* this makes no sense. Your previous experience with me? I sent a customer to you to get hubs refurbished. How is that less than stellar. This is nonsense.

Shortly after this noah started saying he was going to send me some of his aisin hubs to refurbish.
*yes, they were well done. And you sent them out, i was trying to help my customer get the hubs as it was the last thing we were waiting on. I was never rude or out of line.
Fast forward to 2012. Late february noah started asking me again about refurbishing a pair of aisin hubs for him. He mailed me some hubs but they sat at my shop until he paid on aug 1, 2012 when he sent me a paypal, as he never ordered off the website like a customer, but sent me an individual paypal.

*brian, this is total bull**** and you know it. Besides a cracked inner dial the hubs were in fine shape and worked great when i sent them to you. You are covering your ass with lies like usual. I never knew the internal hub dial was cracked as that is supposed to be your job to inspect them. This is an internal part so i would not of known. I sent you a good used internal hub dial that i procured from george at valley hybrids.
Noah then decided he wanted me to finish them, sent me another hub dial, but still never ordered off the website and never bothered to pay for the refurbishment of his aisins or the extra effort of fixing the less than functional aisin hubs he sent me, thus the hubs were never finished. After getting his threatening emails, copied above, i boxed up his hubs and the extra dial he had sent and shipped them back via usps label number: 9407 4036 9930 0003 7480 22 on oct 15, 2012.
*wrong. Here is where i helped you back from the ledge. You flipped out and childishly blocked me from all communication just because i wanted my damn hubs back or finished. Yes you refunded my initial money but i was waiting for you to ask for payment when the hubs were finally done. I was trying to end this amicably and get the transaction done. Once i realized you were just not capable or wiling to finish the job i just wanted to have my hubs back.
Noah is “that” guy. He wants above and beyond help and service, but wants it done on his schedule, on his terms, annoys the crap out of you to get it done and doesn’t want to bother paying for it.

*brian, it seems every customer annoys you in some fashion. If others don't believe me just google "wabfab customer reviews" to see what i am talking about. Again, you cover your lies with more lies and the spiderweb grows. I am not the only customer you have had problems with. I guess some people simply cannot learn from their experiences. Your comments on never paying you are just ridiculous brian, i promptly paid the initial hub refurbishing fee. I only confronted you on the payment as the time limit to contest the payment via paypal was coming due and i did not want to be out the $ i had sent you. I paid for the services, i have no idea what you are saying about the website, you are just being silly as usual.
Brian, i will do everything i can to make sure you never sell another thing here.

I sell NEW Aisin 79-85 solid axle manual hubs, USED Aisin 86-95 IFS manual hubs and refurbish yours if you send them to me.
All the details are on the website page here, as well as several other options for Aisin manual hubs, parts and accessories for converting to manual hubs.
WabFab Off-Road Aisin Manual Hub Page
Aisin Manual Hubs | WabFab
This is a set I just received to refurbish, ASCO manual hubs (look at the lettering on the center of the dial it says "ASCO" instead of "AISIN") which were on the early Toyotas and not something you see many of these days as they are getting harder and harder to come by. Anyway, I thought they turned out nice and hope the customer is happy with them.
As I received them, nasty, covered with RTV and greasy. The faces also had quite a few of the big spring tabs busted off so the faces had to be replaced.
Right after a good cleaning and blasting.
Done and ready for packaging and shipping.
If you got any questions shoot me a PM or email.

Keep up the good work. I have always heard great things and have seen some of your engine swaps and everything has been top notch.
The hubs look great!
