Re: CPP Brand New 100% redesign tilt steering column

My post is going sideways on the original tilt column subject.

I read the link that had the crooked index on the steering column. Obviously a quality control issue.
I for one am tired of low quality products. How difficult can it be to get this right?
Add in the stuff like the thin tail light gaskets, don't remember the product source on this issue.
Finding the parts that fit and function is a big deal. I also rely on other board members input to assist getting a correct part the first time.
I have a pile of junk parts, under the bench, like everyone that restores these trucks.

Here is my take on CPP.
I installed CPP's rear sway bar on my trailing arm truck.
It was an absolute disaster from my point of view.
It caused my truck to sway when ever enough power was applied to spin the wheels.
It was so violent counter steering was ineffective. One had to get off the throttle or you would either roll the truck or ditch it.
After removing it the truck straightened out perfectly.
I found others that complained of the same issue.

I wrote and told them my experience.
I received an email saying they might return my money.
I wanted it pulled from market. They get a zero for safety.
If they will not investigate safety issues you can guess what product quality issues are like. No Six Sigma implemented there.
I give CPP a vote of no confidence.
