Soupbox660 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 So here is the deal, and I thought everyone should know, so they dont have to learn the hard way like I did. Put new a-arms on the shee and needed extended tie rods. So I looked around a bit and saw full flight racing's tie rods. Researched them, saw some mixed reviews, but I thought hey, they are just tie rods and they have a decent website and make lots of parts, surely I cant go wrong with some tie rods right? WRONG! Trying to save a measley 10 bucks has now cost me $200! The first ones I ordered were wrong..... I called and called and emailed and called for 2 weeks untill finally someone answered the phone. I told them which ones I really needed and they said ok, just send the others back. So I did. Watched UPS tracking number and they received them 2 days after I shipped. So I waited and waited for another week and a half. Ended up going on a riding trip with the stock tie rods with the worst toe angle ever because they didn't get there on time. So they finally come in. Went to put them on. Their machining work is HORRIBLE! They aren't drilled center and come to find out the threads go in at an angle. So one side wouldn't go on at all and the other, once it was on, started pulling threads off of my tie rod end about half way up and ruined it. So now, im caving and just getting all new name brand ends and rods. But the point is, these are just tie rods.... These guys make a arms too. I cant imagine what kind of crap quality they are. And their service is a joke. So from my experience I would like to let everyone know... DO NOT BUY FROM FULL FLIGHT RACING!!!Thank you, that is all!

blue97shee Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I was kinda on the fence about using them. Sounds like I'm gonna go thru ATV Galaxy and just get LSR's and a bunch of other stuff and utilize the discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

special06shee Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I had full flight arms and tie rods on my bike for two yrs. no problems whatsoever. Recently put asr arms on and had great luck with them as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 damn i would have shipped you a set of tie rods for +2+1 a arms for dirt cheap. I have full flights with no issues, I did buy LSR tie rods, because i needed new ball joints on the end anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenyboy Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 From what I've read on other posts is that they have the cheapest/worst heim joints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soupbox660 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I guess that's more of my complaint. I understand things can happen when machining. Stuff happens to me all the time. But the customer service part is what pisses me off so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soupbox660 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 That's the problem. I can't get them to answer just like when the first set was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
