Had an issue with my adapters and called the tech line on Sunday. Spoke with Jim, and after I sent some pics, we figured out my modded rack was the problem. He said he'd make me a new bolt if I covered the cost difference. It showed up today (Tuesday) and fit perfectly. Thanks guys, again there's a reason I'm seeing more of your stuff out here.
The packaging was everywhere but it did go through customs
Amazing experience great quality
First and for most the kit is absolutely amazing when it comes to design and construction. I’ve been running the kit for just under a year and got about 8 events now without a single option. These kits do have heim joints so do make sure to nut and bolt check regularly especially after track days. I only had 1 issue with the kit when I received it and that was one of the heim joint spacers was the incorrect inner diameter for the lower control arm to subframe bolt. I did the install on a Sunday and sent FDF an email at around 10 pm when I found the issue. I had a response at 8 a.m. Monday morning informing me they were sending me a replacement that was the correct size. It only took 24 hours to be at my door! Quick response to an issue plus great customer service and expedited shipping for the mistake combined with the quality of the product has made me a life long customer. I have 2 sn95 mustangs that I am also building and when I have the funds will be ordering kits for those as well. Thanks again to the FDF team for making great products and for being genuinely nice and responsive to their customers.
