ZL1 Addons Jackpad warning!

[JimC]

This is some bullshit. Did ZL1 reply to you?

Nope, no response.

Isn't the principal owner of ZL1 the guy who died recently in the accident (was a post about it, and potentially a street racing case)?

Not that I am aware of. I think they are two different people.

 

[JimC]

Could be, I thought it was the same guy but I could easily have it confused.

 

[BleedinBlue]

He's still alive, he messaged me on a couple other boards requesting I call him.

 

[claudermilk]

Well, at least there is some kind of response now.

I just talked to the owner of ZL1. It appears he is stepping up and doing the right thing.

If you have the previous plastic model jackpad, toss them or trade them in. The new aluminum models are worth a look though, as are any of ZL1's other products. As upset as I was when this happened, I wasn't hurt, and a company that steps up to the plate after their product fails has my full support.

That's good to hear.

That's solid. I've been watching, expecting a train wreck, and am so happy for you that it didn't happen.

Awesome to hear man

Good to hear. Glad everything is working out for you.

I was watching how this was going to work out and the guy was VERY honest when I dealt with him. Glad he still has the same ethical business practices. I think the guy has a very good education and doesn't really need the money. I think he does this stuff on the side so again, glad it is working out.

Gotta to admit, never heard of this product until now.

 

[claudermilk]

Great to hear this. I always had the impression this was a side business for the owner.

I did have a little concern looking at he plastic ones way back when I first ran across his page; now that they are all machined aluminum, they look to be more stout parts.

Are you swapping to the new aluminum parts? If so, let us know what you think when you get them.

Glad to hear they stepped upto the plate!

How does you go about swapping them? Just email the site?

Yes, he sent me a newer model. I'll keep everyone posted when I get it.

I think so.

I got the new premium jackpads today. They look great...the machining looks perfect. Not at all the cheap piece the plastic thing was. The instructions say you should only jack the car up 5 inches with it. Not so great for getting the car high up on jack stands to get under the car, but good for getting the wheels off.
