Went to have my new Teraflex LCAs installed... Didn't have the Jeep for an entire weekend. Take a gander at them and hmmmmm... Teraflex sticker is upside down. That's odd. Get under the Jeep and CRAZY... Drivers side LCA is CLEARLY marked "PASSENGER SIDE." Ditto for the other. WTH?!?!?! Anyone know a GOOD shop near Castle Rock, CO for future work?

 

Pure laziness on the shop's part. Nothing pisses me off more than that kind of crap. No pride in their work.

You should 2x check the torque specs of everything they installed, too.

 

I HATE letting other people get their grubby hands on my Jeep, but I didn't have time this weekend.

 

Wow. Id be pretty angry if in your position.

 

Oh it gets better.... They call me back and ask me why I think they are installed on the wrong sides, so I tell him because the one on the drivers side is marked PASSENGER SIDE. So he takes me in the shop and says, well, I think they just put the stickers on wrong, because if I put the drivers side on the passenger side, the bend will be on the outside and will hit the tire. NOT IF YOU FLIP THE LCA 180 DEGREES MORON! I'm pretty sure a teraflex didn't mislabel them AND put the stickers on upside down. OMG.

 

This just gets better and better.

Totally possible to install them on the wrong sides. That's why they're labeled!

 

Get your money back, those clowns shouldn't be working on Jeeps.

I'd take the LCA's out, measure the length carefully to the TF specs to make sure they didn't bugger that up. Reinstall them at home.

You need a 2" open end wrench and about 1/2 an hour. They come out easy. No need to remove the tires or jack up the front end.

Check to see if the shop even bothered to grease the knuckles or install the zert fittings, they come dry from TF.
