I ordered a lift kit from Hell Creek and the kit came with extended braided brake lines that are made by Z&M Jeeps. Well the Banjo fittings and the bolts were too small for my 75 J-10. I contacted Hell Creek, he said to contact Z&M, since they(Hell Creek), have no control over the lines and fitttings. I went all over Heck and half of Georgia around here to find banjo bolts and fittings, no-one has them. I guess what I'm trying to do is get ahold of Z&M and see if they can make this right. My front brakelines are useless without the correct fitting and the stock lines are way maxxed out even though I replaced them with new stock ones due to the condition of the old ones.

Well, I've waited and waited and have no respect or time left to waste on Z&M Jeeps. They finally responded then I asked them to get back with me on what I needed to do, how much total for both sides and where to send payment. They've obviously blown me off. I guess one customer, who is willing to pay for a mistake in THEIR packaging,just to get the right **** for my Jeep isn't worth the time of day. I'll be sure to spread the word. You'd think they'ed make it right, but, hey. I've owned my own buisness for years, this is not the way you treat customers. Word of mouth is either a good thing, or a real BAD thing.

Slow down killer. Zach is good people. Small outfit over there so don;t expect a bank of reps answering the phones. Just keep calling till they answer. This isn't the place to air out your issue. I understand you want it fixed NOW, but the rest of the world doesn't move at your pace. Have a little patience, he will work it out. The rest of us here have been dealing with Z&M for a long time with good results.
But now I need to ask, do you still have the factory brakes in front, or did you upgrade at some point?
That being said, take it over to the vendor sectionJeeps are Jeeps, keep Jeepin

So is this just the place to put out good comments about vendor's and not the bad? I've owned my own buisness for years, so I know how to treat customers, and I know what is right and what is wrong. If you can't support your customer base, you've put yourself in this position.1975 J-10,360,TH400,QT,

This isn't their main source of income. I lay you odds your calipers were changed or you caught the split year deal (went through that with mine too) There were 2 sizes. If your bolts are too small, then you have J20 or later J10 calipers on it.Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental.

Yes, the bolts,copper washer's and banjo fittings were too small. I ordered new calipers, the new calipers I ordered had the same size banjo bolt that my old calipers had. It's just that the extended brakelines that were supplied through the kit that Z&M made had too small of banjo bolts,copper washers and banjo fittings. I tried to find them locally, but no one had them. I live in quite a rural area.
I contacted Z&M and after a week or so he got back with me on the price of the Item, but did not clarify if it was for both sides or one side. I contacted him back and asked where to send the money, what was the total for both sides,ect.ect. I have yet to hear back from him and it's been over 1 1/2-2 months now.
That is why I am a little PO'ed ove rthe matter.1975 J-10,360,TH400,QT,

The title of this forum page is:
"Customer Corner, Vendor product discussions"
It is not:
"Customer Corner, Vendor product discussions"--unless I disagree w/ you and I'm a friend of the vendor.....
I'm sorry guys, part of their "product" IS their customer service. It's amazing how fast they start contacting and attempting to make something right after it it aired here.
This is just like every time someone has a problem w/ BJ's, there are forty of you guys lined up to beat the guy up for discussing them...
Moderators,
I say we dump this particular discussion bullet. The friends of the vendors here apparently do not want this forum mechanism.
