"I just installed a Split Window bus 944 disc brake kit on my 60 single cab. Shipping was fast and everything fit properly. Caliper brackets, remachined hubs with races installed, grease caps, etc. I had a few issues getting everything fitted up, but not because of parts in the kit. Custom jobs always require a little time and preparation and I was prepared for that. My only suggestion is to include instructions highlighting some possible fitment issues. Other than that I am very happy!"
Had the same problem I had to open the holes on the bracket and the caliper to make them work. instruction would have helped alot. If they are making them from a fixture they need to fix it they should bolt on but they do not. |

Contacted Bruce through Samba asking if by chance they had a rear bench seat for my Bus, Bruce emailed me back in a very timely manner with a yes and a reasonable price I could afford. I drove out to the east county in San Diego where one of his guys met me at the Wal Mart.
Seat was in perfect condition, I was expecting it to be in need of refurbishing as Bruce said it would need it. I mentioned to his guy I was also looking for a middle seat and less than 20mnts later Bruce called me with a few options.
Would deal with them again! |

Worst company I've dealt with. I payed 2200 for a full wilwood disc brake kit and this was in February. It took 2 months before I received the front brakes and I've never received the rear brakes. It's been 6 months and now I'm out $1100 and can't get ahold of anybody from the company. |

Jack33,
I cannot sincerely apologize enough for this horrible transaction and the mismanagement of your order. However, I would like to say that after breaking up with my business partner in Albuquerque, New Mexico, certain orders were lost during the move and didn't come through to our new side of the sales and customer service department at our new shop location. We are currently up and running just outside of San Diego, California and I can assure you this wouldn't be the current situation if you were to have recently placed an order with our newly established shop.
I can truly understand the frustration and inconvenience our previous shop has put you through, and with that said, I would like to personally mend and complete your transaction with the missing parts you didn't receive. I will send you a personal message here shortly so we can discuss more of the details that transpired and bring you the customer service and satisfaction that you deserve. |

Ordered the 944 disc brake conversion kit on 8/1. Received on 8/11 but spacers were missing, received spacers on 8/22 two of them look like they were made from cutting off the end of a piece of pipe (and not cut completely straight). Haven't tried installing the kit yet but I'm skeptical on how it will fit (have heard it's not great, we'll see).
So far I wouldn't say I'm happy or dissat, just neutral. Shipping certainly wasn't fast but could've been worse. 10-11 days when shipped USPS Priority means it wasn't shipped until about a week after ordered. _________________ 60 S0-23 Westy |

I drove down to meet Bruce and pick up a few needed parts for my car.
It's really a pleasure to meet such a nice, friendly guy in a scene where it seems you're always dealing with riffraff and people trying to pass off junk as good stuff.
I could see first hand that Bruce keeps a hectic schedule with all the cars he has and managing his crew of dismantlers. Even in the midst of all the commotion, Bruce was kind enough to stop what he was doing and help me sort things out and even went as far as lending me his tools.
His prices were very fair and managed to make my 2 hour drive to see him worth my effort.
Thanks Bruce, you're the real deal, I hope to see you again soon.
Mark |

Just gotta say, dealing with Bruce was a piece o' cake.
The parts I bought were exactly as advertised. Fair price.
Shipping was fair and fast.
Would buy from him anytime. Thanks Bruce. |
