These are in stock at HH and so they should be able to get one out to you.

Did you at least call and order the replacement?

Ask for overnight shipping as a courtesy for the muffed kit.

I believe tlr has a cab forward body in the works as well as j concepts with a silencer model.

I ordered back up parts from Horizon with no extra shipping and had them in two days.

If you in deed ordered it you should have it in time. Make sure you speak to someone in person. Be nice as it goes a long way.

dude....relax.....there is no kit ever that every kit was perfect, horizon is very fast when the ship this stuff, and they make it painless....all you have to do is call them, they dont make you provide prof or anything....

i know it sucks, but, hey, it is what it is...

People sometimes forget what it takes to release a new kit let alone be absolutely perfect. Ps4 Xbox? First wave? Never perfect. Refraining from freaking out on a forum used by so many to decide on what to buy is a step towards growing a class and allowing a said company to flourish and continue to release new products for us.
So many these days rely on internet reviews to determine purchase. Sorry there was an issue but posting about does zero good for anyone. Call horizon. They rock. They will resolve the issue

Today is Tuesday. If you call them and they ship it even normal, it should get there by Friday. Request faster shipping, they will get you taken care of. IL to NJ isn't that far in the shipping world.

I will properly set the slipper once it gets on the track.
When I build my ball diff for the first time, I like to snug the screw, then hold the out drives and roll the center on my pant leg a few times, the tighten the screw a quarter to half turn, then roll again a few times... I repeat this until the center does not turn while I hold the outdrives. tightening down in 1/4 to 1/2 turn increments prevents me from over tightening it... This also helps me to work everything in a sort of rough break in period. Gets me a good starting point when it gets in the car.... Hope this helps someone out along the way
