Guys who drop off their brand new JK, tell em moneys no object and let Teraflex do all the work so they can look cool. I'm not pulling this out of my *** either, I work with a guy whoes dad is one of Teraflex's main guys (and yeah, he's a D-bag too) and I've heard a lot of stories about how they cater to retards with too much money, they're not in business for the love of wheeling anymore, they're in business because they figured out that a fool with a small ***** and his money are soon parted. I'd be willing to bet only about 5% of Teraflex customers even wheel their junk, so please, AF canyons for stock Jeeps. I've run my share of trails and have yet to meet one of these guys with all there Teraflex crap and Teraflex stickers plastered all over their rig actually running anything, I see alot of them at the mall and driving down state street, but never the trails. Heck, they dont even run em on the course at Miller motor sports park at the all Jeep show Teraflex sponsors, they shine em up and park em. Now that I've gotten my rant out of the way, anything those D-bags say carries no weight, their just a buncha posers.

I can't 100% agree with this, I'm am and have been great friends with the owners ( minus the miller part) and founders of MEPCO. I know all the history of how teraflex got started and why its where its at now. No I don't agree with them nor will I ever defend teraflex. But they are right now catering with what's gonna make them money like everywhere else, its their counter guys and shop guts that's really giving them a bad name I still talk to the family that stArted teraflex as well as mepco on a regular basis. And they know how I feel about the company now but they are not 100% in charge bow that they partnered with miller corp.

Wow I did not know that Miller corp had a hand in it. Makes sense now though, their in the biz of making money. Just too bad it quit being about offroading and all about money. I stand by my beliefs that most their stuff is overpriced Mall crawling accessories, at least thats what their customers use them for.

I guess i'd look into getting a spool of high heat hose from evco if I were looking to replace ALL of them, but one at a time (as they crack) is how I've done it!
