The only thing I have a question about,is that I paid the $160 core charge for my calipers knowing I would send my old ones back to get it refunded.But I wont get the whole $160,because I also paid almost $37 to send them to VBP.Shouldnt I get that refunded also? Otherwise I paid shipping both ways for one set of calipers.

I'm glad I did get the 10% off then to cover some extra shipping costs,because St.Petersburg,FL is a little bit of a drive! Somewhere around 3300 miles.

Redson,
We do ask that the customer be responsible for return freight on cores. I believe this is a standard practice in the industry. As someone said above, all the rebuilders would end up raising prices to cover this expense...

Ij ust ordered the rebuiltpower steering control valve and power cylinder with the 10% discount. Thanks.
P.S. the control valve i have been waiting for 3 weeks from MA came in and the damn body split in 2 pieces when I was tightening up one of the pressure hoses.....that's with a shorty wrench so they sold me crap....... Going with VDB from now on.

Grrrr...ya jinxed me...decided to repack the wheel bearings while things were off and apart...both sides were toast...
The way I look at it, you owe me $50.99 for the 4 bearings and seals....I'll forward you my Napa receipt once you send me your adress.
On another note, VBP's Oring conversion kit was great.
I'll get to the rear tomorrow.

Yeah.my most recent purchase from VBP was the four 'O'-ring stainless sleeved calipers,& I added Hawk HPS pads.Wow! What a difference! I havent taken any measurements,but it feels like a 50% improvement.All in all,I think VBP has about $3000 of mine now with the all new suspension,etc

Here is a rough estimate I would add an additional $10-$20 for insurance, packing, my fees for looking all this up, etc. etc. Please call or write anytime...

Also, the big suspension and brake packages have already been discounted (based upon buying all the parts separately) and the discount code cannot be applied...
