Nah... Powell and I had a falling out after I made a thread about Roadmagnet springs back in 2014.

My front control arms have moog sphericals cabs, and are brand new. The moogs have worked exceptionally, and are still mint a year later. Not messing with them.

My whole suspension is practically brand new actually.

I love powells products and John has a lot of knowledge, but he can have a short fuse. I give him the benefit of the doubt though because he isn't 25 anymore. Gloria has been super to work with. Wish they had some kind of working web page though.

i drove to the shop ( from connecticut ) and got to see the workings and went out to dinner with them both afterwards. Super super nice people. John is knowledgeable well beyond anything anyone has on here. Gloria is incredible. She sent my wife who was pregnant at the time chips that only canada had that she knew my wife liked. I cant say enough good things about them

Gloria has always went the extra mile for me. John is super smart and a good guy to deal with, you just have to let his rants roll off. He means well and it would probably help if he wasn't so busy and having to deal with a lot of 17-20 year olds who own these cars now, has to be frustrating. Can't imagine all the time ZZP spends dealing with them.

He gave me lots of good info over the years to, and I got a long with him well, but after my Roadmagnet spring thread that all ended (unfortunately).

I gave a review on Roadmagnet springs when I purchased them, and recommended them, and because I'm a mod he got mad at me for it. Said I recommended a non vendor item. Yes, he was correct... it was a non vendor item, but my thread was not about taking business away from his springs, it was merely my review and my personal experience with an item I purchased. If everyone had the same parts and setups due to only using one person as a source for parts, this place would be pretty boring. Anyways, it's over, and that was 2 years ago. We moved on.

I can imagine dealing with all the little kiddies would be frustrating. I have been for almost 10 years now, lol.
