Anyway I thought this thread was going to be locked.

You can not compare the operations/structure of the company in the past to what they are now...they have drastically changed.
Oh and Calightning.. the Jim cheerleading picture.. yeah it was funny a long time ago...time for a change buddy...

It sounds like if he wants to continue to be "second to none", he needs to hire some more people!

You have most likely spent thousands upon thousands of dollars there I am guessing, for the guy only buying one or two bolt-ons, jdm's service is subpar.
The original post is here b/c the person didn't pick up the phone or there was a miscommunication....
Actually I didnt spend thousands with JDM... i bought a lot of my parts from other owners....but when I did buy items, they arrived 1-2 days as scheduled.. why... because I picked up the phone, explained the exact order and made sure there were no issues.

Thanks for clearing that up!!!

They are Lawson Ciruit breakers with mounting brackets. The PN# for the 30 amp is 89107 the 40 amp is 89108. The original harness that came in our kits is up to the task at hand. Dont worry about that. The kit is about 4 years old on your truck, the circuit breakers can go out on you especially with some life on them.

Its so funny that every JDM thread goes down like this.
Whats not so funny is.The fact that because of these boards, JDM is so big.the down side to that is when something goes wrong, everybody is aware of it.You gotta admit, it must be real hard for JDM to keep up a good reputation. It seems like they are undernieth a magnifying glass everyday.I sure would not want to be in their shoes.People dont remember all the good post, they only remember the bad. Its really not fair to them.
