Why it takes 3 months to get an FMU rebuild kit from Stedman's or RCC?? This is F'n rediculous.

Bet it would not take them 3 months to send a new one, you should have called Bell engineering, they would get you one in about a week

Oh yeah, they have plenty of new FMU's...I am sure if I gave them the $250 I would have a nice shiny unit next week...oh wait, its Stedmans...make that by Christmas. Who is Bell? What their website/phone number?

Thanks.

I'm guessing they dont have it stock????

Did you talk to richard?

BrianK · « **Reply #4 on:** October 19, 2008, 07:37:38 AM »

i am guessing he is dealing with stedman and just lumping Richard into this.

TrickTom1 · « **Reply #5 on:** October 19, 2008, 07:55:03 AM »

Its ........ bellengineering.net......ph # 830-438-2890..........you want the overhaul kit for the BEGI 6.1 regulator I think they were $30. and as far as getting stuff from Richard and Jay, never got anything from Richard but he has answered some questions on the phone which were helpful, Jay sent me a BOV which I got in 3 days, don't know what the problem was with your kit unless like Nem said it may not have ben in stock. they should have said if that was the case, what exactly is wrong with yours are the shims/diaphragm torn up or is it just dirty/piston sticky, if so it may need to be just cleaned up, good luck

Well, cant say anything on this one , I have got stuff from Richard and Stedman and never had any issues with either....Did you try calling them to ask.?

RCC TOLD YOU it was that long of a wait????

jdcfrank · « **Reply #9 on:** October 19, 2008, 09:29:53 PM »

Never had any problems with RCC. Richard has always told me, what the delivery time.

I guess part of the reason could be that RCC does not sell rebuild kits for FMUs, so it could be an indefinite wait, someone asked in a thread a few months ago and recieved the same answer,

News to me...according to Jay you do and three months ago he said he would get one for me. I have sent another email to him for clarification

Bell Engineering fixed my FMU at no cost and turned it in three days door-to-door, I think the guy that owns the company is Corky, great guy and will send you anything you need.

rrogers · « **Reply #14 on:** October 20, 2008, 02:23:47 PM »

I am assuming you have a BEGI FMU with my comment.

Well unfortunately Jay nor his company have any affiliation with myself or RCC Turbos, so if you wish to take his word over mine feel free to do so, or better yet try to order a rebuild kit direct from us, you may be surprised to hear the words over the phone "sorry we do not sell rebuild kits"

Richard...trust me. I already regret not buying direct from you in the first place. Regardless, Stedman is reselling your products and telling their customers that you will do something when its obvious you don't. So now that Jay has wasted 3 months of my time is it safe to assume I can send it to you and have it rebuilt to spec?

Just buy a new one and rebuild the other one later and then sell it..

Yeah, buy one new from RCC. Asking RCC to fix something you can't get Stedman to fix promptly is like taking your Kawasaki to a Suzuki dealer for a warrantee repair whne Kawasaki says it will take three months.

So if he doesn't take care of it to your satisfaction are you going to keep complaining up the supply chain until someone does?

Good luck with that

Unfortunately this might be my only option...unless Richard is willing to rebuild it for me.
