They will be on more than a shit list this time. I'm getting the forms to file complaints to the Attorney General, better business and whoever oversees state to state commerce.

good - seems that is the only way to get a company to snap shit and do their jobs now adays.   :2thumbs:

Rolling Thunder - Here is FSM page from moparts that shows the part numbers.  64-72 B-bodies use the same upper control arm.

I hope that magnumforce sends you your stuff - this is total BS.   You should try to reverse the charges. 

Like I said, I've had my magnumforce arms in storage for a while - they will be here if you need them.  I won't be using them due to the Alterkation I purchased for my v10 setup.

Hope it works out for ya!

I will let you know when I can come up with the money for the arms. I sent Magnumforce a cashiers check 3 months ago, so no charges to reverse, best I can hope for is a refund on what I didn't get. Hopefully this thread will keep others from getting screwed like I did. If anyone would like to post this thread on other Mopar sites, I give you my blessing.

Waiting to hear from Attorney General, complaint filed against magnumforce.

I got a post card from the Attorney General in the mail this past week, said my problem was being "looked into". By some strange COINCIDENCE...........my shocks arrived the same day. Will my control arm arrive soon as well? :popcrn:

Electrical, brakes and a couple odds & ends and it's time for some wheelies :2thumbs:

Is the consensus that for street use nothing beats a stock/reinforced K-frame? Does anybody besides FF do K-frame reinforcing? How many have reinforced their own K-frame?

So after 6 months the shocks are going on and a control arm is coming from another source. After the problems from this vendor [and I use the term loosely] and a few other scoundrels in the Mopar hobby, I have decided this is my last Mopar, adios buds!

Dude, that sucks. :rotz:
I hate it when people screw other people out of stuff for their pride-and-joy just to make a buck. :rotz: :rotz:

MAGNUMFORCE UPDATE! I received an email from Brian at Magnumforce apologizing for the 'problems' with my order, promises to send the other control arm :popcrn: :popcrn: :popcrn: :popcrn: :popcrn:

I sent Ron Jenkins (MagnumForce) a link to this thread, a few weeks back and let him know how disapointed I was that this was going on, definatly not good for business. Certainly Hope he  remembers how tight knit a community we are.

What also sucks is my car has been  backed up against the garage wall the past 6 months with no suspension. I need to pull the rear bumper to finish the bodywork. I sold the stock parts to finance the new stuff.

superduperbee

The other control arm showed up today. :o It appears to be the correct one. :o :o :o I will test fit it tomorrow :popcrn:

superduperbee

The control arm fits. FINALLY got all the parts. So brakes, wiring harness, paint and a few odds & ends and it will be done :icon_smile_question:
