Most companies have humans packing the parts into bags.. Unfortunately this will always incur some element of human error...

Unfortunately on forums you will mainly see negative comments, if everyone that had no problems posted it would be a different story, so I wouldn't be too hung up on it.

The car is awesome, well worth the wait :thumbsup:

started the rest of the build and found another part missing :thumbdown:
NOT GOOD

I had 2 left hand rear wishbones when I built mine

grobson1970 16-05-2014 02:59 PM

I think every time they balls up they should send the customer a spares package to say sorry .

But i am sure this would only start people giving them a call just to get a freebee :(

Built mine this evening, all present and correct.
I have to say it was a pleasure building it

They should be pre cut, look for very faint cut lines, it may need then separating.

grobson1970 21-05-2014 10:38 AM

The masking sheet is about half the size it should be !.
(not long enough to cover the side windows )
It looks like a ruff cut end of roll .
They are sending me a replacement sheet.

In total
the problems i have had are
!/2 a diff missing (there were 2 sides the same)
3 washers missing
a faulty shock collar
and duff window masks

Not impressed

You seem to have been very unlucky, I've purchased / built 2 KF's with no issues. Once you run the car, that should put a smile back on your face!

grobson1970 21-05-2014 01:10 PM

Fingers crossed you are right :)

You going to have it ready for tomorrow night?

DCM 21-05-2014 04:09 PM

Unfortunately, the way these things are packed, if the contents weight is correct, then in it goes, whether it has the correct items or not.

I take it everyone in running cut bladders(emulsion shocks )
as i built mine with the bladders in and they were rock hard :confused:

Cheers

Gary

It sounds like you haven't bled the shocks correctly,how much rebound did you set the shocks to? Yes most of us run either cut bladders or the vented shock caps, but you should be able to get the shocks built with bladders to run ok as well and certainly shouldn't be rock hard.

grobson1970 26-05-2014 09:08 AM

i have built them with zero rebound
I have never had problems in the past building shocks .
Rock hard may be the wrong wording
they are just very very slow .

i will try and rebuild them again and see what happens .

cheers

Gary
