R&D IDI

Does anybody know what’s going on with these guys? I ordered an injection pump 3 weeks ago and no one will return my calls or emails?

Please do a search first, first post, only to complain...

I ordered from Justin 6 weeks ago, got my part in two and a half weeks. Great quality!

I don’t think he was trying to complain, just trying to get more info.

Some people seem to have better luck contacting him through Facebook or email. You may try that.

And welcome to the forum!

Oh I did search first... didn’t find any problems, that’s why I got to wondering. Not complaining, just trying to understand. No worries, Justin called me this morning and all is good.

Glad to hear this. Justin is a one man show and is very busy. Sometimes it can get hectic.

Just twisting your leg. Lol
Also as a side note, his second business j2 fab keeps him busy as well.

It recently took 6 weeks to receive the rebuilt injectors I ordered from Justin. And yes, I sent the cores in first. It states right on his website something to the effect that "it takes a while" if the part is not in stock. I certainly cannot complain about the quality of the injectors - they work great and the truck idles the smoothest it ever has. In my own opinion, I do think 6 weeks is a bit excessive for a wait time though in today's competitive marketplace, but Justin was quick to reply to my email when I inquired about the status of the injectors after 4 weeks wait. I do suspect Justin is to that point where his business is going well enough that he needs to make some decisions to either continue to grow and be try and reduce product lead times, or keep it a small one man show. I guess the thing to remember is to be patient - you will get the parts you ordered and they will be good parts, but it may take a while. if you are in a big hurry for a part, you better call him first before you order.

I shipped my R&D IP back for warranty. It was delivered to R&D Oct 10th. I just got a tracking number for it coming back Wednesday. Today the tracking number still says waiting to be picked up.

I think it's the game we play with these old trucks. Sometimes things are worth the wait; short of that, there's always that new $80k dealer model; guaranteed to need a lot of s*** fixed before the warranty is up, lol.

This is why I don't buy newer vehicles. I feel that I can save huge amounts of money by buying older vehicles and fixing them. If I buy a $4000 IDI instead of a brand new diesel for $80,000, that $76,000 that I just saved will buy a lot of fuel and parts to fix mine up. That's not even counting the interest that would be paid on said new truck! I'd still like to see how many of thee 2018 model year vehicles are left in another 30 years. Plastic deteriorates too.

Plastic deteriorates too.

Aluminum..... lol
