Re: [MBZ] parts sources, again
I miss selling all the folks on this list as well. I wish things had gone better for Trent, I continue to offer any advice to him but he won't respond to me. I have forgiven Gary for accepting 17k in my Amex deposits from web sales at buyMBparts.biz that went into his buyMBparts.com checking account when we first split, because my wife insists that I move forward and upward with my new position at World Pac and get over the past. Well after 37 years of marriage she knows a lot more than I do, so I am doing as she says. Keep Trent on the list, he may turn this around, add Gary back, make them both behave. Don't buy from Trent for me, buy from him for his service, same as Gary. I wish I could sell everyone through World Pac but it just isn't to be. Good luck to all finding a parts source, I personally would stick with the smaller guys like Trent or Gary over the mega parts guys but that is just me. Adios my friends!

Last summer I replaced my rear brakes on the 82 240D. I replaced everything, rotors, pads, calipers, flexible brake hoses and the left steel brake line leading to proportioning valve. I used reman calipers. I've always had good luck with these until now. The left rear caliper pistons seized up. The inboard side was not making contact with the rotor and thus that side of the rotor was very rusted. The outboard side was not releasing thereby causing the brakes to heat up like mad. l replaced the caliper and rotor today. The parts were free as they were under warrantee. The caliper has a lifetime and the rotor two years. The right sided brakes looked just fine with minimal pad wear. Now I know that you must replace brakes in pairs but I didn't as they are only one yr old and as I explained the right looked fine. I then took the car for a spin and I now hear a squeal on the right, it is worst when braking. Could this be related to inequality in braking power? Could this be caused by replacing only one side?

Re: [MBZ] TRENT update
You hit it right Rick. I talked to Trent's brother tonite. He got shafted for 24k. Me. A few more bucks. My customers got the big shaft and for that I apologize. I probably should have just shut Bimby down. Hindsight is 20/20. Once again I apologize for this, I will endorse Gary because he does care for older Mercedes, but I will not agree that he has my knowledge of the car in general. My issues with him are over, I have moved on. I miss all my customers but as I said 4 months ago I had to take care of me. I have, and will continue to answer anyone's email.

The girl I spoke to said I would have to deal with my local poleeces. I contacted a Capt in the Sheriff's Office, he put one of his guys on it. His guy says: My apologies sir for the delay. We have encountered something similar in the past and conferred with the Solicitor's Office. The incident location for which the crime occurred is the location where the funds were misappropriated. From the information below provided by Mr. Thomas, the jurisdiction in Sterling, Illinois, should be investigating the matter. I know 3 or 4 of us here on this list got screwed by this guy, and there are others out there too that Jabba has heard from (I ordered a load of stuff from him today). I am thinking that if the local poleeces do not want to chase after this guy, we need to get a list of people and amounts lost (whether our banks/CC companies recover or whatever) as he is basically robbing us. Note too that it is a federal crime (interstate wire, etc.) but I doubt if there would be any interest from the feds on this guy. If I got that info I would contact the local prosecutor/ police chief, and whomever else with the collected complaint. That would get their attention I might think. I pinged my Sheriff contact to see if he had a chance to call the Sterling IL PD and asked if he could get someone there as a contact. If anyone wants to join in, send me a private msg and I will compile a list. If Jabba can get some others he is in contact with, that would make several people with the same complaint.

Re: [MBZ] Trent vesus Jabba death match
and more viciously crooked till it has reached the point where it is at now. even though i've had nothing to do with this company for many years now, these are sad days for me. i feel sort of like a parent whose child has run away from home and now i see him on the nightly news evolved into a hardened criminal Now that is strong stuff, he does not seem to care about destroying someone else or their livelihood (including the reputation of Rusty Cullens). What proof does he have of these viciously crooked things? I think the only thing he has is his believe that Rusty did the dirty on him, which we where all supposed to agree with and when some didn't he turned on us in a heart beat but no I got that wrong, Gary is a good guy and we are all vicious crooks evolving into hardened criminals. If Gary is a good man he should have thought a lot harder about what he writes in public and how he treats people, especially those he has issues with. And I do not follow your logic, we should not have kicked Gary even though he was happy enough to kick back and now that it is his turn to do some kicking, he certainly wasted no time putting on the pointy boots. I see what he wrote on MBworld as a major kicking, perhaps Trent deserves it but my view is that a few kicks where aimed at Rusty as well, who is feeling very bad right now but no that's right Gary is the golden child and Rusty is the mean one. Anyway we are all entitled to our view of the world, you reckon he is a good bloke who got done over, I reckon he has a mean streak that comes out now and then to play. What everyone else thinks is up to them but I do remember we gave him a fair chance on here to calm down and play nice but that did not happen. Basically that is what I see, you're welcome to prove me wrong and tell us exactly what makes Gary such a good man, I don't see it right now but I do not have closed mind either.

I can't imagine any excuse that would clear this at this point, as nice as that would be. And I can't imagine anyone here would disagree with this. I think its safe to say it: hes a crook. - I believe Gary is the best in the business. I buy a lot of parts and I've tried a lot of places. Hes the only one that actually cares about what he sells and delivers as promised. - Gary has had his lively hood destroyed by a messy divorce. While he acted in a way that offended many, I can understand his actions. Put yourself in his shoes. - I'm certainly not looking to start a debate about who did what and who started what, but consider this: Rusty, Gary, and Richard together played a significant role in creating this community and creating a successful online parts business. Anyone who knows the three for a long time would agree: None of them could have accomplished anything without the each other. I find the endless flow of destructive words by many of you against Gary to be sickening. All of you who are guilty of this should be ashamed of yourself.

I like how the APA/URO rep tries to defend himself, albeit unsuccessfully. Again, this comes back to a very dated post I made regarding window seals. I referenced a great article by the former owner of the House of Ghia who I met many years ago when I was into VWs and he was aggressively producing reproduction Ghia parts such as windshield seals. Sadly, Jim passed a few years ago and his business was sold. The old web site is gone as are many of his very insightful articles. The point being is that rubber parts are especially easy to clone cheaply, as the amount of carbon that can be added displaces far more expensive ingredients but does little to affect the look and feel of the part. It also significantly reduces the integrity of the material, meaning that it will deteriorate rapidly when put into service. There is a thread about window seals in which a guy with 40 years experience says he doesn't notice any difference when installing URO. I thought and what do they look like after they've been on a car parked outside for 5-10 years, the OE seals keep water out for 10-20 years? Just ordered a Lemforder front flex disc for my car. $202 list, $162 my price for OEM from my dealer. The Lemforder was $116 from Trent (Lemforder is the OE supplier.) URO part is $79. That means the URO part is 30% cheaper than the OE part. How can it be that much less and still be the same quality? If Lemforder is OEM, it looks like 50% cheaper than OE and 30% cheaper than OEM. There's a pic in a peachparts thread of a one year old shredded URO flex disc. Absolutely the last part on the whole car I'd buy URO, as nobody wants to lose their drive shaft.

With some help from a neighbor and his son, we used the Topsider and changed the oil (Mobil1 0W-40) and filter and rotated the tires LF - LR, LR - RF, RF - RR, RR - LF. So, 1224 miles, two doctor's appointments, and a couple of MRIs later, we are back home. We left about 1030 on Monday morning, made it to Holbrook, AZ, after the snowstorm had blown through and the roads to that point were clear. We then abandoned I-40 and took side roads through Heber-Overgaard and Payson into Chandler, AZ, arriving at 2100. Some of the side roads, like 260, were snow-packed, but the Nokian WRG2s handled things just fine. On the way back yesterday, we took I-17 north out of Phoenix, had lunch in Flagstaff, and drove I-40 east to Albuquerque. North on I-25 to Santa Fe and 84/285 and NM 502 brought us back to Los Alamos last night shortly after 2100. The car performed just fine. 75 mph on the Interstates was enjoyable and, except for all of the semis on I-40, stressless. Despite this car's cruise control's setting idiosyncracies, having the cruise control was a big help. I noticed in Phoenix that the upshift delay started working, but didn't take time to try to clear the Check Engine Light. The neurosurgeon there said I have severe compression of my spinal cord and said he wanted me in a cervical collar immediately in case I fall or am in an automobile accident before the surgery. His staff is arranging the surgery, which will be in 3 - 6 weeks.

Tom Hanson makes mention that there are 15 inch steel wheels that take hub caps. I want to keep the hub cap look, but have trepidation about investing good cash in rims that will have obsolete tire sizes in a few years. I can buy obsolete tires now for big cash or spend reasonable cash on a larger size tire on a more modern wheel clay On Jan 3, 2013, at 6:43 AM, Rusty Cullens wrote: I have the 15 hole 15 wheels new for $125.00 each plus shipping.

I am in a bind over being able to source a tire that performs to the design specifications of the car.
