Warranty dont cover T-Bar Crank

[H3less]

So Aflax, how much did you crank the bars? I know I want to level the front end when it comes time. It seems there are plenty of you that have done it with no issues, what's the dealer's responce to that one?

All I did was crank 2 turns and put on my 35s. I started getting a popping after a couple months, which dealer claims is from the TBars. The dealer (Bob Moore Hummer in OKC) put the 35's on for me and I cranked the bars. When I brought it in, they dropped the bars and said the noise went away then they went ahead and cranked them back up and gave me the car back to go on my way.

It seems to me that if the dealer can sell new H3's with lift kits and perfomance tunes under warranty that lt shouldnt be a problem to fix the problem that came from 2 turns of the bars?

Good point

Are most dealers techs good enough to spot something like a crank on the t bars, or is it tough to tell with out measureing and stepping back and taking a good look from the side comparing it to another non lifted?

No Sh1t...Too late for that...At least I learned my lesson...

Except for this incident, the dealer has been awesome. So I really should not be complaining too much.

Not in this neck of the woods They just think the raised appearance is due to fitting 33's GMC dealer even did the alignment on warranty after I done mine a couple of turns

F5 always the hard line with you and I understand it and love it. I come from real world Hummer sales, Management, and service. I have way too many stories to tell of mods including turbos that have been repaired under service warrenty. Bottom line. Customer service and as long as you don't go so far out of bounds it is major it should and will be covered. And if the dealer did pull that on me i would trade it. (has not happend yet)
