Morning all, just wanted to provide an update on the that shock I received that looked like it was welded on a Friday at 5pm by someone who cared more about "Happy Hour" than finishing their work. Only fair to share both warnings to others and also kudos when deserved. Anyways I reached out to Progressive Suspension directly. Heard nothing back for like 2 weeks then noticed the email was in my outbox and didn't send, fuck. That delay is all mine. So got it sent and within a couple days I heard back from cust service person who said he would escalate. I had sent them the pics as well to show in full detail. It got escalated to a girl who managed large accounts who agreed it was totally unacceptable quality and that they hadn't seen anything like it there ever, and it was not Progressive Suspension quality standards. Said she would rectify this asap but they did not have it in stock so she would check with her distributers, which she did. It took a week or so but she found a set and they sent them to me free of charges. I checked them over and this set seemed flaw-free so all is good. I thanked her and told her I value them backing up their products more than any other feature, and that I would share this situation with others. Society is quick to spread bad news and publicly attack for smallest things and I am not against public shaming when a all others means have failed to hold someone accountable. But everyone can make a mistake( I know I do) and it is how you react that really matters. So they admitted it and made it right and kept a customer who will promote their product and likely be a repeat customer. So case closed on this one and I just wanted to follow up with the "end of the story" as there are prob quite a few on this forum that use Progressive stuff or are contemplating it. cheers, Steve
