    16k swat dissapointment

    I have two issues. One bearing cap was missing and the other three were beat up. I assume the damage was done during shipping. You did replace the missing cap at no charge and I made a dolly to straighten the other caps.

    I opted to spend an additional $500 to upgrade from 14k to 16k package. Your add stated the axle would be 3.5" on the 8k axle but it was 3". The same as the 7k. I was told that it was a few mms thicker but that doesn't make up for the diameter difference. I know there is a larger bearing in the 8k axle but I don't see a $500 additional value.

    Hello, I'm glad you received everything and I do apologize about the messed up items. It sounds like you got a hold of someone in the TTPO team and were able to speak with them about this already.
    If you need anything or want to get a hold of me for any reason please don't hesitate to contact me!
