Birdman is a good dude, he helped me out with advice for my mid perch debacle. As far as parts, I go through Jason over at SDHQ he's a great dude to deal with and works with my timelines.

Well I got my NV's today after a month wait. Noticed all the boxes has gashes in them and just new UPS screwed me over. after opening and inspecting all 4 wheels I was surpised to find only one wheel was badly damaged. good sized gash was on the outside lip of the wheel just above the bolts!! Method was pissed off and said they only ship with Fedex and when a third party gets involved UPS is the way it's done. 4weelparts.com is sending me another wheel and was cool about the whole thing. Bye saving a few bucks not ordering from Method I payed with agrivation !! The gash in the wheel was a notch most likely from a dolly being smashed into it.

Sorry to hear. I got mine put on my 2014 tux super crew last week and love them. Totally changes the look of the truck. Trust me, once you get them on, you will be really happy.BTW, I am having zero issues with balancing-ride just like stock wheels.

What, Jason is a "great" dude and I'm only a "good" dude? lol. I got my stainless bolts today from Method. I was going to take twl up on his offer for the new zinc bolts but didn't want to go through the same problem again. Swapping 96 rusted bolts is 45 minutes of my life I will never get back. I had lol at how the bolts arrived. They fell out of the bag so I got a giant box o bolts.

Lol you know I've got nothin but hetero love for ya bro! Actually ordered my last two methods yesterday! Hopefully all six will be coming in late next week. Jason took care of me as he usually does, even with me being a major pain in his ass. Up next on the block is sdhq bumpstop and deaver +2's. also, I want some ridiculous amount of SDHQ swag to show up on my door step!!!! Dig that hat!

I remember a torque wrench groop buy thread a while ago and can't find it. Any advise on a good one for lug nuts? Not a chance in hell the dealer will be rotating my tires with the new NV's on the truck.

i prefer the old school mechanical rather than digital.

The digital ones just "beep" when you hit the specified torque and is very easy to over torque.

I have a few snapon torque wrenches with a mechanical release that clicks and the handle moves when you hit the specified torque.
