Ok so start rant
I had some work done by Macquarie 4x4, they did some good work (so i thought) Replaced the rear main seal, fixed the rear brakes, and replaced the gear box mounts.
They did all this work in 2 days. they forgot to tighten the bolts for the drive shaft at the back of the gearbox. This is after they test drove it and said it was fine to go, yet it took me about 50 metres to realize that something was wrong. (1st dodgy workmanship)
I also noticed when i picked the car up that the ride height wasn't right, after a couple of days driving and alot of scrubbing turning corners i decided to take it back saying that the ride height is low and not how i brought it in. To which he responded that it is lifted as far as it can be and that its not their fault.
I went 4wding a couple of weeks ago and there was another d22 there with a 3" sus lift. I have a 3" sus lift and 2" body lift. The other d22 sat slightly higher which made it clear that this is wrong.
I got the other d22 to measure the height from the centre of his hubs to the bottom of his flares he came in at 560mm, i measured mine and it came in at 550mm. So this pissed me off.
I went back to them today to get them to fix this issue. Brendan "the head mechanic" told me that it is not his issue, it is my problem. He told me that he can "try" and fix it at my cost.
He tried to blame it on the torsion bars not being as "strong" as i thought they were (I have calmini heavy duty's). Then when i told him that, he tried to say that maybe its fault with the system that winds up the torsion bars (cant remember the name he used)
After all this i said that he should be the one trying to fix this issue as he was the last person to do work on the car, and since he did the work it has not being the right setup or even close to the height that i brought it in at.
He then told me he has explained the faults that could be possible and he has nothing more to say and walked away.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING CUSTOMER SERVICE!
They had a chance to get alot of buisness out of me and people i know. But after the way they have treated me, i recommend that people stay away from them and do not use them!
Rant over.
