Post FLM screw kit? - 12.31.2007, 02:52 AM

Does FLM sell screw kits for their chassis kits?
I just ran into an issue where I flipped my truck and the two screws holding the rear shock tower to the dogbone shaped mount connecting it to the transmission case bent. As well as the screws, it bent the tower itself. And when the tower bent it pushed the screw for the turnbuckle into the gear and took two chunks out of it. Not a good way to start off my day.

FLM has a lifetime warranty on all their parts, so if you send them the bent parts, they should send you new parts right back.

Here's FLM's warranty -

Extreme Abuse Warranty

If you bend it, break it or break off a screw in it we will replace it for a fraction of the cost.
Generally only the cost of shipping and handling.

All warranties are covered only through Fast Lane Machine.
You must send in the damaged part along
with a check or money order
to
Fast Lane Machine
209 Lake Dr.
Gray Summit, MO 63039

Please e-mail us for replacement cost.


Try the last statement to get started - email them and ask what you need to do.

I don't see a FLM screw kit. I know FLM's parts comes with alloy steel grade 12.9 fastners and where I've had a prob, the replacement part comes with the same complement of fastners just like the orig did.

If you're just looking for a screw kit, try Tony's, I get all my rc fastners from Tony. It's usually the 1st thing I do when I get a new rc - replace all the screws with high strength alloy steel hex heads.

I have been wanting to do a screw kit for some time, just have not gotten around to it yet. But we do plan on it.

If you need a "few" screws for your parts being replaced let us know and we will give you some.
