Okay so, the dealer I'm purchasing the Superlift from informed me 2 days ago that he talked to them and was told they had 2 kits in stock and ready to ship. Okay, cool. So I put my order in this morning, and I get a message from the dealer stating that they sold those 2 kits and are now waiting on the casting of new steering knuckles for the next kits to ship out... My question is, is this what took so long for all the other guys kits to ship out? The casting of the new knuckles?

I think I recall at least 3 different excuses that were given for the previous "delay".

My opinion is that the kits weren't selling quick enough and with the rough economy Superlift made a business decision to not produce the kits until there were enough backorders to reduce their cost risk.

Hopefully recent sales have been good enough to prevent that again....

Yeah I hope so, I was told about 1-2 weeks until they are ready to ship. I'm going to be pissed if I have to wait any longer than 5 weeks.

As long as it comes around the same time as your shocks you're good :)

Might as well throw up a FS thread for your shocks/springs

Actually I just got my money refunded... I'm going with what Adam is saying. Yeah it might ship in a couple weeks but it could also take months. The guy I was ordering through said he's going to try to put a hold on the next available lift in my name so I can pay for it then have it ship within a few days. Instead, I'm getting regeared and locked with the powertrax on Thursday!

My SL shipped quickly. The only issue I had was with poor communication from the freight company.

Sent from wherever my Jeep takes me.

I got mine from performancelifts.com.
Originally ordered it through 4wheelparts...but after 4 weeks of excuses from SuperLift (who assured me as well before ordering that they had the kits in stock)...I called performance lifts...the guy sent me a pic of all 4 boxes complete and ready to ship. I had it in 3 days with free shipping!

Yeah, I was on the phone with Jon..and he asked his guys and they said that the kit they had had just been spoken for. At least it was another member here!
