Well rocketboy, I've got the paypal reciept showing that I paid him for the axle and I never recieved it and he hasn't returned any emails pm's etc in a long time. In the very beginning he told me that I would have the axle by a certain date, well that day would come and go. That happened a couple times and then I just never heard from him again. I have left message after message asking for info on the axle or about getting my money back. I haven't gotten either one so yes, he did screw me over!! Guess you didn't know him as well as you thought you did...???

From what I was told he was the original owner of rocket pipes, but has since gotten out of the business.

Alcoholbanshee are you Andy from GRR??

Yes, rocketman28 did take my money (paypal transaction) and did not send me the axle. This was about 2 months ago and I had let it go and just chauked it up as a learning experience until I saw the email address that I was under the impression was rocketman28 trying to sell parts on PS and thats when I made the post. It wasn't rocketman28 it was minkia and for that I'm sorry....I've said it many times and have no problem saying. Rocketman is still a no good person to buy anything from on the net, until I see my money back or an axle my opinion of him remains that way. Craig

I told you 10 times, I was going off of an email address that I had for rocketman....thats the only way I knew who the guy was.....It was a misunderstanding of someones identity. My point that I have been here longer just means that I've been here for many years and don't make a point to go around starting trouble like you are doing in this thread that has nothing to do with you. It was a misunderstanding that I am working out with minkia so you should stop adding fuel to the fire. Drop it and let this post die so that it doesn't stay on the top of the forum for all to see. I had good intensions of warning others about a bad guy to deal with....I'm sorry that minkia got drug in to it, but he did. It was a mistake that is being fixed.

Minkia I'm trying to get a moderator to delete the post that I made because of this big misunderstanding. As far as your email, I'm sure you recieved a few emails from me as I was sending them to all the emails that I had for rocketman. Again, I'm sorry for the mix up and if I ruined any deals you may have had in your for sale add on PS let me know and I will work something out with you for the pipes so that you don't get screwed out of that money. Craig

I don't feel stupid at all....I just don't think you realize how you look. I don't go running over to planetsand to start stuff. I have been a member there for a long time and here MUCH longer than you. Look at my member number compared to yours. I don't have anything against anyone on this site and definately not minkia. I have seen him on this site for years and never had any dealings with him or any problems. I don't know why you don't understand this, but I was givin minkia address...I didn't know it was his because I've never delt with him to need to know his address. This whole thing is so blown out of proportion its crazy. I don't even care that I lost the money as it wasn't much (compared to others that I know who have lost alot). The only reason I made the comment was because I saw an email address that someone used in a bad deal with me so I passed it on to my fellow atv riders in hopes of helping someone else out. For now on I will not say anything and let dumbass people go on and o screwing people out of money. I'm sure minkia has a few emails from me about the whole axle thing because I thought it was rocketman and I'm sure he can post them if he still has them. Oh well....Good day

Dude its called anger management...LMAO!!! You are the fucking moron because you know nothing of the deal. If I buy something from someone and they give me an email address, then I will associate the two together. Seems like common since to me?? As for calling him out...I'm sure he knows by now because I gave him weeks of emails stating that I was waiting to here from him and if I didn't I was going to spread the word on forums so that everyone knows that he is a crook and not to deal with him.

Don't deal with rocketman28 unless you want to be screwed over on your purchase. I am just letting everyone know so that they don't get screwed over like I did. I sent him the money for an axle about 2 months ago and he never sent me the axle. I see him selling things on this site and others so I am just warning others so they don't get taken like I did. Sorry for taking up space about such stupid crap. Its a shame that people can't follow through with deals. Craig

I pmed you. Thanks

I need a stock axle, sprocket hub, and brake rotor hub for a banshee. Let me know what you have. Thanks Craig

Where are you located? I am looking for a banshee right now, but I am not wanting to travel very far. Craig

I am now doing it that way as well so I don't have to go through this crap again. I wouldn't have thought this guy (40 years old) would pull such a childish move, but life is full of surprises. Craig

Normally, I wouldn't care either because he is always up to stuff like this, but he hacked my account on bluetraxx and started talking bad about other people (shops) under my screen name and since I am a shop owner and are always on these sites it looks very bad from a business stand point. I don't run my business like that and I surely don't want him on my account acting like that. Either way, glad he is caught. The main reason for the message is for the people he hacked to change there passwords. I (like many others) use the same password for many things so I had to go and change all of my passwords because he was trying to use many different screen name accounts. Sorry for the waste of bandwidth on this kind of crap!! Craig

I had an old snapper once and the teeth would always brake on the starter. They sell the gear for the starter at the local snapper shops around here. I had to replace it once before and the way the guy talked about it, it sounded like it was a common problem. Craig

"I have .16 acres of mostly crab grass and dandelions. I use a Craftsman 6.5 hp mower with a dull blade and a clogged air filter to mow it 3-4 times per year" LOL sredish.....thats a killer looking mower!!!! I too am in the market for a new mower due to having my riding mower take a crap on me. It was taking hours to get the yard cut (.58 acre) because I kept having to work on the damn mower. I finally had enough of it and looking into a john deere from Home depot or a snapper. I'm not sure what to go with. I don't want to spend thousands of dollars because I don't have that big of a yard at this point in time. Anyone have any comments on the two I listed. I don't mean to jack your thread boonman, just thought I would add to the topic. Craig

Thanks Holyman!!!!! I got it!!!! Now to try and finish the stupid thing so I can put it behind me and never think about it again....LOL Craig

I don't know anything about desert racing cages. Here is a link....I couldn't get the pics to work. http://www.nloc.net/forum/showthread.php?s...light=roll+cage Just scroll down and you will see the pics. It might give you an idea for what you need to do....or not...LOL Let me know if I can you out at all. Craig

No better mod than port work when it comes to hp per dollar!!!

What are you building the cage for? If its for drag then I have seen a few done. I have been needing to put one in my twin turbo lightning so they will let me run at the track, but I like having it look like a sleeper on the street. I also don't want two kicker bars coming out of my back window. I do have some pics of cages in the trucks if you are interested though. Craig

How in the H$LL do you get passed the green tile wall!!!!!!! I can't believe I have wasted so much time on this damn thing!!! I now have to beat it or I will go crazy.....someone please explain!!! I have read through the post and followed the instructions on how others did it, but its not working.

Your compression sounds good and if you can see the cross hatches in 80% of the sleeve then I wouldn't worry about it to much. You will take a couple thousands out when honing it which will just give you more piston to wall clearance and make the piston sit looser in the bore so if it looks good I would run it. Craig

Sickboy is right they are made by weisco to vitos specs, but the vito's pistons different from a regular weisco if you compare the two side by side. When I said they were a stronger piston I was implying that they are stronger than a stock style cast piston. Craig

Like mentioned the vito's pistons don't work well with a ported motor because it throws the exhaust port timing off. I would use weisco pistons if you are wanting more power because they are a stronger piston and can take more abuse. Craig
