Well... it probably just rubbed me the wrong way, but on their website when you choose your shipping all it says is, "Currently mail services are unreliable. FedEx is operating normally."

Their location is Delaware, so I made the mistake of thinking my product was shipping from there. I wasn't in a hurry and figured if the mail is a little late it would be ok. I was not aware they ship their goods from POLAND. I was told it clearly states this in their "frequently asked questions" section (which by the way is a small link on the bottom of their page). Unless you have a specific reason to be looking at the faq's, you aren't going to read that. In addition, the email I received had tasty tidbits like...

Since the passenger traffic between US and Europe is suspended, and mail system uses cargo storage in passenger planes for international transport of priority mail items, mail services are currently using alternative shipping means (ships, mainly) which allow mail to arrive, but significantly extend the transit times. USPS is sending mail to Europe by ship once a month, for example.

We do indicate this information on our order form (cough, cough, bullsh!t), in fact we even subsidize part of the cost of expedited shipping (which is done via FedEx and is not subject to delays the way international mail is), however you chose regular mail despite our suggestions to the contrary, expressed on the order form, so there is no other way but to wait several weeks for it to arrive.

We are sorry to have to inform you of such dire circumstances, alas, force majeure is not something we can control.

Please be patient.


No... it doesn't say this. All it says is, "Currently mail services are unreliable. FedEx is operating normally." ...just a bit different than what they claimed in the email.

Wow, I'm glad I used Fedex :stirthepot: Shift Solutions is going to be sending me one of their e brake boots, I'll see what the quality is. They are also making shift boots, alcantara and leather. Cheaper than redline goods. They're also making me a carbon fiber sleeve for the e brake handle I'm making for the guy I'm buying the Juke seats from.

In any event, let me know how that works out. :icon17:

Sort of. Surface has to be stripped and cleaned. Electrical current is run through the item, you spray it with the powder and then bake it at 400 for a while. The powder melts. We do it at my shop.

Dang Fiber cut took down my site today and is still down. I catch some signal from time to time from a site 14 miles away. What a pain. Then my truck shut off mid turn on the way home. No codes nothing. It was a fuel issue. Looks like my rail pressure sensor did something funny. Not sure. Oh well, the challenges of today.

I went to the new Harbor Freight in town and only spent $59. :) Got a can of silicone spray, a drain spade (AKA sharpshooter), a colored wrench set (5/16-5/8" open/ratchet combo), and an external battery for my cell phone. Didn't really need the wrenches but thought they looked pretty cool.
