Angry CRUSHED Ranger, check this out...

So the other day I head down to my pepboys to get new tires and rims slapped on and for the unbearable shaking in my truck to be dealt with, it's so bad that my teeth rattle... but that right now is the least of my concern. So after I dish out $1,000 on my baby I get her back to find that my truck is crushed... after looking at it some more I found out that when they jacked her up, they didn't have their forks under my frame but instead under my front fenders. They buckled out on both sides a good inch or less. I'm going back tomorrow to rage hell and get my $1,000 refunded to me and for them to pay for my repairs. And some money ontop of that would be nice because it's been a nightmare for me. Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't built for car shows but it is... take a look. You can see the circular grooves where the forks incorrectly sat.

Damn, I'd be furious. You should video/voice record everything for us. And possibly for court. But mainly us

It's a shame that people that work in a place like that don't have the common sense to know where to put the lift points.

Don't take the law into your own hands, take them to court.... the People's Court.

That's why I hate taking mine anywhere, the last time I took mine to get the new tires mounted, they cross threaded two lugs and didn't mind to tell me. Thank god I looked... Sorry to hear bout ur truck, I agree with buggman! Take him to people's court!! Lol

They're probably going to try and say there's no way they did it.

Ya, then when they were trying to get them off they broke both of them and proceeded to tell me that they couldn't fix it......
