Cant wait for Hobbsy to read and reply....lolergram wrote:Also be careful with the CV joint on there for $49 each, it is not EXACTLY the same length from groove to groove for locking circlips.... Slight mods to hub clutch were needed...
But the actual quality was good, just a hassel to get it fitted right.

People like you shouldnt be allowd to buy off ebay. I had a few customers that bought on the 24th december and were complaining( as early as the 28th) about there orders not arriving even after i told them that the wharehouse and courier company is shut till the new year.lolergram wrote:Beware of user 1418ooo.

Now I know why my mate with the GU stopped buying sh1t on there...
This bloke on ebay burnt 2 patrol owners with similar parts...

Straight out lier! Also reckons I took my time to pay? LOL instant payment..... Anyway...

Just looking out for you guys! As we all should!
If you have any others to be aware of, list them here
Did you communicate with the supplier about this problem before splurting your greavances in a public place????????lolergram wrote:

with that strike rate.... surely he would of replaced the part free of charge or was it easier to sit here and type a defaming statement than to send an email back asking if he'd sent the wrong part?ebay store wrote:buyers:

Then there are the idiots who see my $59 freight to nsw , vic amd brissy and fail to read the rest of the sentence. The think thats the flat rate for all of aust incl places like tassie and kalgoorlie.
Chrissy is a bad time and i bet you probably didnt follow the buyers instructions when making a payment, making it even harder/impossible to track down the correct buyer.
Im not afilliated with hobzee and he obviosly does more trade than me on ebay, But with his feedback and rep on here alone, you my friend have no hope of swaying anyones opinions of him here.
SO, my suggestions is for you to not trade on ebay and go to supercheap or repco instead, as you obviously arent human enough to be part of the ebay community.
Yeah i was having a bad day.chimpboy wrote:Pongo, you've got issues man

So does that mean that if I buy something off your ebay site, you will personaly come over and fit it..... WOO HOOHobzee wrote:
Anyway, Chris has since asked me to supply a 3" kit with castor and brake lines for his patrol and I have agreed to not only supply this but fit it too as show of "nice guy" faith. I will now hit Chris up with a commitment to do a few Navruns and we should all be even.
Thanks again everyone, I truly do appreciate the support.

Yeah, definitely learnt lesson there. Well I guess that's how advertising works, catchy title and details not particularly suitable to the title.Hobzee wrote: I am sure that had Chris just made mention of a CV fitting problem he would have been overwhelmed with support from fellow GQ owners with good constructive advice. Likewise, a phone call at the time would have also had me around at his mechanics joint trying to figure why it took 460 units to find the 1st rig they didn't slot straight into.
I think Chris has learned not to mix a blasting of 1 seller with a comment on another seller's products in 1 post. And that's probably where his undoing was.

Mind you, it was fitted on 30th dec, you were away, I wanted my truck back for new years and so we went for solving the problem anyway we could. We just couldn't pull the cv out any further from the wheel bearing housing thing-a-magig, literally the amount of space on the circlip cut out on the CV was enough for 1/2 the circlip. It could have been out even just 0.5mm (but mentioned 1mm), coz who would ever think 0.5mm would be a problem!!
