We bought our Jeep with a Full-Traction 4.0-IN Ultimate SRS Suspension. The trackbar heim joint is shot as well as the 3-link bushings. I contacted them over three weeks ago to order replacement parts and was told the sleeves would need to be machined and would ship out the following Wednesday. Sounds fine.

I called today to check on the status because I still haven't received my parts. They guy on the phone said they would be machined sometime next week and shipped out. I told him when I ordered them I was told I would have them no later than last week. He said "Don't know what to tell ya bud, we are busy. That's the way it goes." When I told him that wasn't cool because I really needed the parts and was told I would have them last week. He said "How about I just go ahead and cancel that order for you? and hung up on me. Granted my tone wasn't super pleasant on my reply but I wasn't hostile. This company sucks and now I have to figure out how/where to get the parts or I need to replace the system entirely.
 
Full Traction is owned by the same guy that owns Hanson Offroad. I have Hanson bumpers which I love, however, their customer service is so bad that I will never buy anything from them again. They told me I would have my back bumper in 4 weeks, it arrived 10 months later. Each time I called them they told me it was in powder coating and would be shipped out next week. There is a facebook page about them that are posting their experiences. Did I mention I will never buy from them again?! they suck balls...

It takes a fair bit of dicking customers around before this happens so you know that you are not alone at least.

Here are pics of the parts on my Jeep that I need to replace. I was going to post link to the parts on their website for more info but it appears their website if having serious issues right now.

I seriously doubt those jackwagons make those parts, I bet you can buy them elsewhere, I would not rely on Full Traction whatsoever, it truly is amazing they have not been shut down yet, along with all the other companies that make up Calmini...perhaps Rockjock\Currie would have what you are looking for...

Those are common split bushings and heim joints. Summit Racing will have them, just to pick a place that sells that kind of stuff.
