Default paging van steel

i bought the smart struts on the group purchase you had going about 6 months ago. was wondering about any type of satisfaction guarantee. i love the rods, but the differential brackets went on and came back off. the back end just felt 'lazy' with them so i'm not so interested in them.
you may recall this was an issue i was skeptical of when the offer was first made. i tried them out, even at willow springs, and did not notice any improvement with them. like i said above, the rear actually felt more lazy. that's the only way i can think to describe it.
the only reason i'm posting here too is just in case you don't have any kind of buy back policy and someone else might be interested in them. these would be perfect for the drag racer or street driver who already has the rods but not the brackets.

So do you want to return just the bracket?
