I have long held the position that we will rarely accuse anyone of something we are not perfectly capable of doing ourselves. It isn't 100 % fool proof , but it works out to be true quite a bit. I might give him the benefit of the doubt because he comes across as very inexperienced ( that is as polite a way of calling him a moron as I can muster ) I mean really .......... what next. A swat team and a sting operation ? Tell your Mom ? Anyone who goes on the offensive while they are clearly wrong just throws up all kinds of red flags for me. And I try to be reasonably nice and look for solutions first when stuff like this rears it's ugly head. Giving out opinions and experiences that are typically roundly ignored. What are you gonna do ?

Think about it all of us make bad judgement calls at one time or another. If you,I or anyone else on here thought we had been SOLD a bad part,we would not be happy about it. I'm sure a return call to him will not only make things right,but will make you a new friend. That is one thing you can never have to many of. One call that's all yea I bet that goes over well, trying to convince him it's not the bearings fault. You will never know until you give him a call. Just because the bearings were new in the box, doesn't mean there wasn't a problem with them. Not likely, but I'm sure we have all bought aftermarket race parts that didn't exactly live up to their billing - and just because you CYA'd on Moparts doesn't mean you still couldn't take some hits. A phone call could solve it all - and you should have done it before you posted!! Fastest 300

I learned a long time ago from a person much smarter than I to never do an instant reply to someone if you are major PO'd at him. You will almost always regret it. Wait a day to cool down, then reply. Always better results. When I was working, many times I would have to leave the shop and go for a walk - or go home. My boss allowed me that leeway - smart man - and I still have all my teeth to prove it Fastest 300

I do that to seat the bearings.... makes a difference... also is he using a radius crank I have been doing that forever, Makes perfect sence to do that, as every bearing is a stamping, and they may not get exactly perfect when made.

Many of us are having to buy used parts from others(not the best thing to do but sometimes the only thing)to get our Race-Cars going. SO WHAT IS THE BEST TO HANDLE THESE KIND OF THINGS? The men who brought a new set of in the box bearings got a little HOT when they would not work and e-mail the seller who in return got a little HOT RESULTS both of these fine men jumped the gun and made things worse My worth on how it should have been handled. 1. A call saying my new in the box bearings won't work. 2. Reply from seller did you check this or maybe you should try this and if they still don't work and or in fact bad(I have brought new in the box parts that were bad). Return them for a refund or I will send them back to my supplier and get you a new set of bearings. What is everyone else's opinion?

I suggest remedial English regarding what is an obscenity, and what causes blue-haired senile old women to vapor lock. Hint: they're not the same. The ability to say whatever you choose by carefully obeying every rule is evidently beyond your comprehension. You might want to explore whether there are other possible corrections than removing the entire statement. Oh wait - it wasn't a correction, I'm being punished because I don't play well with others. Sorry for the interruption. Please continue to pull each other's hair. Boffin Emeritus
