Right...instead of paying out the $@& for a aftermarket diff cover.

Perhaps you need to find a less expensive vehicle to upgrade....or learn to shop a little smarter.

Maybe you should not worry about what other people do with their vehicles. Everything don't have to be shinny new... dumb &@$. What's wrong with doing things the way I want it done. After all it is my vehicle! Right?? I was considering buying shocks from you guys but I will gladly pay more someplace else.

Listen kid,
I was trying to get you pointed in a better direction than you were headed in your other thread.

If you want to waste your time and energy on adding an unneeded plug to your diff cover...knock yourself out. If you had a lick of common sense you'd whip out your Googler and do a little research and you'd find plenty of low-buck solutions to adding a stronger cover to your axle that would provide you with greater protection and the filler hole you're so desperate to have...even though it's totally unnecessary.

Want to buy elsewhere....good for you. But based on your posts so far you won't buy anything from any one because everything is overpriced.

Yes there are low-buck options for just about everything, but apparently not low enough for your needs.

You really should own an economical car and not a Jeep.

No need to reply, I think you and I are finished.

For what it's worth, Frank is one of the best vendors I have ever done business with. He has amazing customer service and competitive prices. Not to mention, he has more knowledge than anyone I have bought parts from so far.

You should definitely build your rig the way you want and within your budget. I wish you luck in your hunt for a solution to your particular application, but completely dismissing Serious Offroad as a source will make it much more difficult.

Just my .02

You claim he has great customer service? Seems like a total ***** the guy is on a budget, big deal. He doesn't need to buy an economy car.I wouldn't do business with frank. That was a ******** post

Wow! Calm down... if you have bought anything from him you would know what I am talking about. I accidentally ordered the wrong part and he immediately emailed me to confirm based on my previous orders. Caught the problem, contacted me, and fixed it for me within an hour of the order being placed. Also, he does not gouge on shipping like many, my 70 lb bumper cost all of $20 to ship and it arrived in 4 days.

He may not be your favorite, but he is knowledgable and honest. I'm not trying to convince anyone to do anything, just think it would benefit people to listen to other opinions in case it was something they had not thought about.

This forum used to be a very helpful place... Now everyone wants to fly off the handle and bash other people. That's all I have, like I said, just my opinion.
