    I got really bad news...

    You would think that they would have some kind of security cameras on/in the building. Maybe even an outside camera on another building beside it so you could at least see the vehicle they used.

    T-Shirt shipping prices?

    I was just wondering if you shipping calculator is messed up on the Fi site as it wants to charge me $40.60 to ship 7 teeshirts to 15936? Thats seems like alot considering its not even 10lbs with the box. Now I ordered from them before and got 6 teeshirts and 2 hoodies and the shipping was like half the cost it wants this time. I know shipping has gone up but

    recone for diamond audio old school sub

    neither one will work for it.. they might be able to make one that will work for that sub but doubt it y will they not work Why does the link ask to sign into yahoo because bl/btl recones made for the bl/btl subs can't see your picture but probably different basket maybe different size spiders oddball size coil,gap it may not be exactly 3" or the same as the bl/btl's

    Looking good
  12. Took some photos of some bikes from thunder in the valley this year had more but my camera won't let me import the rest for some reason.
  13. Just some pictures of my alternator for my 2009 Ford Escape that Eric made me. He said its only 1 of 2 made. But after installing it found out the UPS must of dropped it in shipping cause after running it the internal fan is rubbing the inside of the case and throwing shaveings all over the place. After calling Eric he said that it must of somehow shifted when it was dropped buy he said that he will get it fixed up and get it back to me asap. So it was shipped back to Eric this morning.
  14. As title says has anyone had any experience/problems with mechman alternators? I'm going to pick a new alt up this week but can't decide between ordering a DC or a Mechman. DC is $629+ shipping and mechman quoted me $449.99+shipping. I called DC on Friday but got know answer and emailed them from their website on Friday and awaiting a reply. I have looked over their topics on this forum and see some complaints with shipping/communication but know one's perfect and I just want to know if saving a couple of $$ is worth it in the long run.

    Can you get the 1/0 in blue like in the picture? I just see grey/red for sale.
  17. You do have a one-year warranty on this unit and we have never backed away from taking care of our customers. Unfortunately we ran into a problem with the fit on Joe's unit, Ford changed designs and we were not aware of the fit issue with the AC compressor. The unit not functioning properly was most likely due to mishandling by the shipping company as every unit we ship is dyno'd before it is boxed. Joe was good enough to clearance the blocks himself so when it came back we cleaned them up, powdercoated them again and clearanced the case on the mill to make things look nice like they should. We work hard to fit units to vehicles that aren't available from other manufacturers and this is one of the problems that we may encounter on a rare occasion. This unit is under the one-year warranty. There is no AVBM as it is PCM controlled. I'm thinking it's simply an idle speed issue at this point and would require a simple pulley swap to correct it entirely. Many new cars idle very low for a variety of reasons, emissions, idle fuel consumption and noise, and it slows the accessories to the point where they can barely function at that speed. 500rpm idle speeds are not uncommon these days, my GMC idles at 550, my BMW at 600, but my Volvo is downright uncivilized at 900.

    NS-1 12v Testing - Derrick's Explorer

    Banana???

    He was just letting his inner freak out
  20. Alt was ordered/paid for on 7-1-11 called Eric for a update on 7-15-11 and he said it went out 7-14-11 in the afternoon and i received it on 7-18-11. Thats why I think it should have the 2 year warranty it didn't leave mechman till AFTER they started the new policy......... but it is what it is. As of a 1 year warranty I have no idea I emailed and ask Eric about the 2 year and this is what he said " Unfortunately no but we take care of our people with heavily discounted repairs outside warranty. Our failure rate is very low so you have nothing to worry about" It does not have a AVBM cause of the PCM I had my Fluke meter hooked up and it does not charge at all at idle. When you rev the engine it starts charging at 14.xx but when it goes back to idle rpm it drops back to 12.xx and slowly drops. Its like the alt isn't turning on.
  21. This was just my experience with my alt. I wouldn't base you decision on just my scenario. I guess i should of asked about the warranty before shelling out the money.
  22. Well recieved it back and installed it and alt wont work at idle and with no warranty i'm f****d
  23. Well I installed it and it wont turn (on) when my escape is idling. When i rev the engine above 1200rpm's it shoots to 14.3-14.5 volts on fluke volt meter but when idling it drops to 12.2 and my battery light comes on. I have checked the plug that plugs into the alt and it is snapped in and the factory cable and my 1/0 guage cable is attached and my belt is very tight. So I guess I'm screwed as I asked Eric about the 2 year warranty and he said that my alt doesn't qualify as I bought it on the 1st and they implemented the new warranty on the 13th. I had a similier problem when I first installed it last time and it was the plug and all I had to do is push on it and it snapped into place, but now I have removed the plug and snapped it back into place and still know voltage at idile. So after all of this I removed the meacman alt and put my factory one back in and it works like normal so i reinstalled the mechamn alt and still the same so I think im done screwing aroung with this as it takes little over 3 1/2 hours to remove the factory alt and install this piece piece of S*** and since this is the third time I installed this its just not worth my time and hassle an another $30 to send it back again and plus what ever the cost of repair would be.. And also I had over 5 hours to install it the first time as I had to cut/grind on the mounting blocks they sent cause they didn't fit and had to be modified. So thats my opinion take it as you will. Pm me If you want to buy it for parts. I paid $449.99 + $30 to ship it back to get fixed last time so make me an offer but remember it DOESN'T work only for parts!!
  24. I'll let you know later as I'm in the process of putting it in today. But for the price for a 270 amp like mine you can't beat the deal and they return all of the emails and they actually answer the phone when you call unlike other manufactures.
  25. Damn I guess I missed the 2 year warranty cause my new invoice date says 7-1-11??
