You are a CHUMP!! Two sets of bent tubular control arms and a month's worth of unreturned messages has lead me to belive this. Thanks for taking my money and sending me your half *** parts.

First set (the one that came with bushings for the heim joints) had such poor geometry and garbage bushings you clearly didn't test ripped a heim joint out in the burnout box when I started to do a burnout and the car pushes against the fronts a little. Your **** bushings caused it to bind because they were not tapered for joint movement and POP! Lucky it didn't happen at the big end and I stuff the car at 12x mph.

Second set (originally purchased for the other car) I put on, this time I bought a quality heim joint and I machined the bushings you supplied for clearance (obviously too hard for you to grasp) They fit fine and allowed me to put a great alignment in the car. I used that alignment for about 10 miles then I found some street action (IDC what your thoughts are on street racing) so I prep and do the first burnout, on the second burnout as I'm stopping the car I feel the wheel rip to the right about 3 turns. Your pile of crap control arm straight up bent, big kink in it!!! Not the joint (I supplied) or the bushing (I made work) but the upper control arm that YOU BUILT!! So thank you for almost wrecking my car twice in one month. Take a little pride in what you do and in your business and make this right! Return the calls you get from me almost daily. I don't know how you can call your shop Curley's Racing Components, hell I've never made it past the burnout on your "components"

Kyle, call me back and make this right, have a damn back bone dude!

If anyone else wants to donate to his profit for pocket charity, visit Kyle Curley at http://curleysracecarsandcomponents.zenfolio.com/

But I can't reccomend it, unless you're into wrecked cars and F'd up burnouts and getting ripped off, I work too hard to pay clowns like this.

Dylan.

I would like to see far more than one picture and different angles with the complete link assemblies. Lets see the other set you are talking about also. After you put together a full set of pictures and the details with them the contact the supplier and direct him to this thread. With what you have here isn't going to even cause the supplier to raise and eye brow beacause he will just say you did something to cause it.
 
That does not look awesome. Or as Maxwell Smart would say, "Missed it by that much".

He won't make any kind of contact with me. I didn't really get pictures of the first set. The bend in them isn't really photogenic but there hit stock calipers. The picture you see here though, that arm was centered on that bump stop. If that isn't enough evidence that they bent idk what to tell ya. I'm sure my money is gone. Main point here is to make others aware of this hack that has the stones to call himself a chassis man.

I am not saying that it isn't bent, that is obvious. He has a facebook page and if you want your money back turn up the heat in the oven with more pictures and proof.

He who sticks his head in a well and whispers gets far less attention than he who climbs a mountain and yells.
 
I run the CAP arms and they added extra gussets and seem to be holding up after 100s of wheelstands.
Kyle is very lucky that noone got hurt.If You build parts and they break and someone gets hurt you will get sued and go to jail. You should post this on Moparts as you may be doing someone a big favor by letting them know Kyles work is poor at best.
 
I'm going to have to join moparts finally and post it there. I don't fb cuz I spend a lot of my time not telling people what I'm doing or where I am lol fb would totally negate that.

Car is in one piece and was 2-0 against a big BBC and some quick little Mitsubishi Evo that I heard tickles 10's, somehow leaf springs and a small block were enough ;)
 
I wonder why "Curley" hasn't posted anything on this. I'm not trying to stir the pot, but he was hot and heavy to sell his pieces a while back. Now, he seems to have dropped off the radar screen.
 
very very interesting and unfortunate thread, i've personally dealt with Kyle in the past and he was a great guy, gave me an awesome deal and sent the parts promptly and had wonderful communication!!! He has, from my knowledge, a pretty solid background as far as component engineering so i'm curious to know wth happened. SpareParts, glad you didn't get injured that would have been a real **** show lol Kyle, where ya at buddy?
 
This post has kinda freaked me out. I was going to buy a cage from him- emailed him over a week ago as he told me to, but I have not heard back. I spoke with him through pm's over on another board and he seemed like a knowledgeable and honest guy to do business with. Hope everything gets cleared up

I wouldn't let him put air in my pedal bike tires. Much less trust my life to him. If you'd like to when you hear from him (you will he hasn't got your money yet) tell him to return Dylan's calls and check this thread. Lucy's got some splaining to do!

no one said you have to post all your business on FB. use it as a tool..

i have gotten awesome customer service by going to a companies FB page and complaining about an issue. tons of people can see it and thats the last thing they want.

Dude I was kidding about the personal biz on fb lol. Truth is I work way too much to spend a lot of time online these days. Got too many cars to finish and still race every chance I can.
 
if you have time to type your rant then you have time to post on their fb page. a lot more people will see it there and maybe you can get results.

Why is the paint off the frame behind the control arm.
It almost looks like rust hole and a kink in the frame.

If your referring to the area on the left behind the bushing, it looks like bare paint, and kinda shadowy but you can see the adjuster bolt...don't see anything wrong with it, but thats just me
