Allot of us have bought from them. I think for the most part people are very satisfied with them. Good luck getting the core charge though. :rolleyes:

VetteBrakes and Products is a very reputable company. I've made a couple of major purchases from them and had excellent customer service as well as good product. And on the core deposit, depending on how your timeline works out it could be well over a month before your core is credited to your card. In my case, I did call a couple of times to "move the process along." You also have to do an honest appraisal on your cores. Don't expect much, if anything, if the cores don't meet their description on what an acceptable core is according to their literature and on their Internet site. They don't fudge the rules on that.

But...They're no different from the other major players like SSBC, VanSteel, Muskegon, and a few others.

Yes got the kits 2 months ago and am very happy with the results. Nice to have brakes again. As for the core charge, i didn't send mine back as it was to costly to pay for shipping unless i was shure i was going to get full refund. I hope to use them again for there suspension upgrades or find a closer vender on the west coast with simular upgrades, although the Canadian dollar is getting stronger which helps when it comes time to spend. Good luck and enjoy putting a stop to air brakes...lol

:cheers:
