4wheelparts.com skrew up

So i ordered the 2.5 front and 1.5 rear from 4wheelparts.com and they sent me the 1.5 rear for FJ 07-08... I live in Alaska and this $hit took forever to get here. Should I send it back or will it fit on my 06 SR5?

...should probably specify that this is the 2.5/1.5 daystar that I speak of.

 

[04rnr]

after all the bad press they get, you still ordered from them

 

[WhiteLightning]

unfortunately i didn't read the bad press - now i feel like a tool.

I feel your pain, I live far away too! The FJcruiser and 4runner have virtually identical suspension setups and many aftermarket brands use the same part for both vehicles. Have you checked part numbers? Maybe they sell the same item for both vehicles? Hope you find a quick solution.

The part number I received is KT09127BK, but it looks like multiple sites list my model and year as an application for this part. However, on Daystarweb.com lists KT09118BK as the part for my model and year. Not really looking forward to a failed attempt at installation.

Daystar may be the guys to ask, though I figure if I have FJ springs in my front and rear right now, that there should be no problem. But I can't remember if 08 is the cutoff of when the FJ cruiser no longer fits the 4th gen.

Daystar was great already responded and said it does not fit.

Now i have to plucking deal with 4wheelparts.com. Subject to 15% restocking fee, I have to pay the $40 shipping return and a "re-boxing fee," though it is in the original packaging and nearly untouched. I highly recommend never buying from their site. Send you the wrong parts and then charge the crap out of you to send it back.

I have a 1.5 inch fj cruiser daystar rear spacer installed, it fits fine, I actually ordered the fj spacer on purpose because it was cheaper

Your signature says you got toytec 3/2 - have you since switched? Did you install the daystar yourself or take it in somewhere?

F that. If they messed up the order they should pay for your return shipping and the shipping of the correct part. Anything less than that and I would call my credit card company and have them deny the charge. You shouldn't pay for their mistake.

my signature is wrong and I don't know how to change it, I've upgraded to the toytec ultimate and added the rear spacer because the truck was nose high and I didn't want to lower the front. btw I installed the rear spacers all by myself in my drive way

Click on "user CP" right under the T4R.org sign upper left hand corner of the screen, then look on the left hand side for "edit signature", then change your sig and click on "save". And there you go.

I can tell you first hand it will fit just fine.. I ran the same part number on mine up until last winter when I got my OME. I go them of an FJ guy last summer and there was NO PROBLEM installing them.

Hey thanks for all the input you guys. I'm glad i don't have to monkey around with returning it and dealing anymore with the 4wheelparts.com customer service. Thanks again!
