paul w Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Get them to get you the right parts next day delivery as it's their cock up! If they say they cant ask to speak to the manager and give him a proper roasting! They will be there pretty quick then i'm sure,it's amazing what can happen if you shout at the right people! Had problem at halfrauds once,when i was young and didn't know any better! I ordered a pair of corbeau bucket seats,the monkey on the desk didn't actually order them,twice! Shouted at the manager(politely of course) and got them buy one get one free! Try it,works for me! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 ;) lol nice plan paul ;) but unfortunately the seals have to come from japan so i can shout and scream but i stil lwont get them any quicker lol.. ill give it a try though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletparts Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 That's pretty ordinary service isn't it!Next time see us first.Those wheel bearings are a bit steep too. If only we could get that sort of money for them over here!PB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 lol but if i were to order them from you wouldnt thee cost of postage make up for it ?oh and this is the problem..the seal cups on my glanza hubs are a lot larger than the ones toyota supplied me with. so what would the ones i got supplied with fit ? are gt bearing seals smaller ? or sr's etc? i can literally fit the new seals inside the current seal cup..

EarL Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 ...better still, take measurements of the bearings load faces (internal diameter, thickness etc) and source them from another manufacturer. There are loads of them on the web specialising in bearings.They probably wont cost you more than £20 total. The seals can probably be sourced the same with a bit of persistance. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 too late lol. took them back today, by all accounts... they ordered abs bearings and seals, yet they dont fit mine..i went on tgtt.com and threw the part number in on the search and it came up with non abs model bearings and seals lol..went there today and the bloke showed the the workshop computer and it says mine are correct, for glanzas with abs.. so it has to be wrong lol..theyve ordered me some "non abs" ones now, see if they fit. even though mine IS abs assisted ;) gotta love toyota.

starletparts Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 lol but if i were to order them from you wouldnt thee cost of postage make up for it ?Because they fit in a A5 pack then we could still do for less.Anyway, as I've indicated ... next time aye!.PB.
