Just want to say what great customer service they have. I order my sliders from speedway and got the afco ones. The bushing that came with it was to small for my mono leafs. I called Calvert today to order bushings and he looked up my info and said I will ship them to you. I said I didn't buy the sliders from you and he said don't worry about it. Sending them all the way across the country for no charge when it was me who messed up and got them from someone else. What a way to take care of a customer.

Not the first time I've heard of this about them. They seem to take care of people and that's the way it should be. They will get my business because of posts like this.

John Calvert is a good guy and supports us the racers in many ways. We should support thoose who support us.

I don't think there is anybody that sends out contingency checks quicker .

I sat down and talked with him last year at the NMCA race at Norwalk. Very informative and personable. I run ladder bars and he still took all the time I needed to answer my questions. I was very impressed with him.

Just got my monoleafs and bars TODAY. Cuda hooked me up. A tad higher than 'bay but I feel like the CS is worth the etra $30. Now if it will just warm up some here so I can get them on.

There maybe a performance company that has customer service as good as Calvert (Meziere may be close) but no one is better.

I live close by so they gave me a tour of the shop and made my ft. segments while I waited and cut me major slack for paying cash.............it was a friday......... I`ve been dealing w/them for years and they go above and beyond for us and usually drive out to get what I need.

I called them a few years ago wondering if they could make a set of monoleaf springs and assorted hardware for my truck. The guy on the other end said nope, can't help you and that was it. It kind of left me with a bad taste in my mouth.Dave

I would relocate the spring mounts to accept Caltrac Camaro springs and bars.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

After he said nope I said that I was left with the choice of building a ladderbar or a 4-link. And he said yep. I built a 4-link and never looked back.Dave

Dave...I talked to Calvert yesterday. Very nice folk! They took my name and number and will call when they have their new front adjustable shock available for my 64. Sounds like it is almost ready for marketing. I also invited them to join the board here.
