Default Full Traction 6" LA Kit - Myth or Reality

According to FT, they are just waiting for the springs from a vendor? Seems like I've been hearing, "They should be ready for shipping this Friday.", or "...by the end of the month." I'm starting to wait not-so patiently now. Are there others out there in the same boat? Great kit, but is it worth the wait?

I waited for 6 months of the same story when it came to thier 4"LA lift. Ended up just going with RE. it was about 3 months after giving up that it was actually released.

We are shipping 4 inch Long Arm kits now. The 6 inch kits will be shipping the first week of July. I will do my best to make sure we make that deadline. Thank you for waiting this long.

Patrick,

Thanks for your response to this thread. I really hope that is accurate, but I'm sure you can relate to the frustration of customers. Especially when the lift is the centerpiece for the additional 15K in parts I have waiting, and the lift was supposed to have been released months ago. Your product is phenominal, from what research I have done. Just curious if you can find another source for springs in the future (probably too late now).

I hear what your saying, and I went into this expecting it to take time. Having said that, If I were in business to sell/manufacture a product and I would hope to hold outsource companies accountable. At some point when they don't deliver, I'd be looking elsewhere. On top of that, I would avoid giving out information based on what they are telling me. After all, if they repeatedly don't deliver when they say they will, how trustworthy is the outsource?

I orderd it from a vendor whom I don't want to mention (they've treated me really well and just don't feel they are the cause of any delays). Hope you understand. I do want to make it clear, the times I've called FT, you guys have been very understanding a seemingly sympathetic. It's just hard to wait. It's a problem I thought I had in check! Make no mistake, I'll wait though.
