Default Dont buy from t&t customs

So i bought i thought was a quality set of rock sliders from t&t customs. Its been less than 6 months and they are already rusting through. I garage my jeep and wash it regularly. I contacted them and they wont do anything for me this is bad business. I put on wheels, a lift, and teraflex carrier (all black powder coat) all at same time and they are all pristine. The sliders are junk see pics

I totally agree that it shouldnt be rusted (especially for the price we pay for stuff). I had the same thing happen to my Rugged Ridge XHD bumper. I just spray it with matte black rustoleum when its needed.

They should at least pay for you to get it re-powder coated. Seems that's where somebody dropped the ball in the first place.

Sadly all you can do is bash them on web and hope to turn a few people away from them and sell them to me for the low since they about rusted In half ; ).

Wait a second. There was another thread stating the same thing a few months back. TnT offered to send new ones or pay to have them re coated. But this guy had just purchased his.

Just curious, how did you go about contacting them? If you called saying their product is a POS and you want a full refund I doubt you will get anywhere. If you were professional and stated the problem and they told you to pound sand, then you have an argument. Just hate to see companies get bashed for the wrong reasons. NOT saying this was you, just asking. Especially since someone above stated they helped someone else here with problems in the past.

Default Rust

I too saw this a couple of months back. Thought that I was going to open an old post and see how it was resolved, only to find out this is a new post. They seem to be having some problems!
