EEEEW, now THAT'S ugly!

Any way of rescinding any positive rating you gave the eBay seller? At least offer the threat to do so unless they help you out on this...

I'm so sorry. You're not going to want to leave those in there for long. Sadly, this is example of the truthfulness of the old saying:
"The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low cost is forgotten"

They won't answer any phone calls or emails. I have about had my fill with ebay, this makes the 3rd item I have bought and either the company won't answer or gives the wrong contact info to ebay then you have no way of making the make good on their warranties. And usually I won't buy the cheapest parts I rather pay more to begin with and not have to deal with problems like this, I didn't think 250.00 was cheapie out but now I know. I should have a set of the good uniballs here today to put in the control arms

Unfortunately, $250 for a set of UCAs is very cheap. I paid $800 for the Icons. But my time to R&R is worth more than that.

Hope you get it ironed out to your satisfaction. (I would still file a complaint w/eBay and rescind the positive rating you might have given them - quote the listing with any warranty info)

I spent a few minutes and found this thread: https://www.f150forum.com/f38/ebay-1...224199/index2/

In there, you will find reference to Yamaha parts. Belken Motorsports (eBay) appears to be the eBay face to C and D Motorsports located at:

20607 Soledad Canyon Rd.
Canyon Country, CA 91351 (a community within the city limits of Santa Clarita, CA)

661-299-6686

Go get 'em tiger!

I can't stand sleeze-ball vendors, especially those who infiltrate a forum and over-utilize every opportunity to try to sell something (usually something that people don't need). I am a seller on eBay, and that makes me more cautious than most. I've only had 3 bad experiences on eBay, 1 as a buyer and 2 as a seller, in 15 years. But I get really upset when some seller chooses anonymity.

I have had this set-up in my truck for 2 years and 32,000 miles. The FK uni-***** have held up nicely and I am sure glad that I changed them out before installing the upper control arms on my truck. I have experienced nothing weird with the setup so far.

My next upgrade will be your long travel kit. I really like the stuff you guys put out.
