Aim Industres...Good or Bad??

[Mendonca00]

Alright I finally found a cheap 3" spindle lift from AIM Industries..I was wondering if anyone has every purchased these spindles or anything from this company? heres the link to the spindles I'm probably going to order :http://www.truckin-losangeles.com/p...25023&returnURL=/product_list.asp?id=1273..if anyone has dealt with them lemme know!

Thanks,
Jenn

Simply put, the company is awful. The products they make are of horrible quality, and their customer service is non-existent. I would not recommend ordering from them.

 

[Mendonca00]

Hrm...maybe I won't order anything from them, does anyone else have any input?

Hmmmmmm I am surprised to hear Heartman say that.
I got a steel colw inductuion hood for my S-10 Balzer from them.
The fit was perfect and shipped well. Only two very small dings to repair.
I was very impressed.

Okay it is a tie game, who is gonna break the tie ?

Go on any street truck website forum and search for AIM. That should be enough proof!

lol how do I find a street truck website? give me a link to one saying AIM Is crappy =)

way back when i had a 90 chevy, i used AIM spindles and shackle/hanger to lower it. the spindles were ok, but the hangers were flat out TERRIBLE. basically, the stock hangers are riveted on.... you grind the heads off the rivets, knock them out, and bolt on the new hangers using the stock holes for alignment. none of the holes lined up, i had to drill new ones despite what the instructions said. also, i had to notch the hanger so the leaf wouldnt rub it.

we lowered another friend's 95 chevy with their flip kit. half way through the install, we sent it back and he got one from Belltech. aweful isnt even the word.

some of their stuff is ok, some of it is complete crap. its up to you to take the chance...

 

[Mendonca00]

hahaha they're spindles look cheap as hell, so thats why I'm kinda debating weather or not to get them!

 

[james t]

the spindles i had for the chevy were good. this was back in 97, and the truck is still on the road last time i knew...

 

[TarHeel085]

hahaha, those things look like they would bend as soon as the weight of the truck rested on em!

 

[Mendonca00]

its a killer deal, but crap dude! I dont know if I wanna risk it! Maybe I will just wait for ClarkKent to take his off and buy his...lol...but does anyone know where I can buy JUST the spindles (fabtech, or procomp)?? I don't want the whole kit!

 

[DocVijay]

I got the ProComp spindles and they look like they are double the size of those things.

aim = junk

i have a friend that had a lowering kit from them and it was bad things bent and we had to rebuils most of the kit.

stay away from them

Aim sucks.
You can buy just Pro Comp spindles from anywhere.
Try four wheel parts or any offroad shop near you.
Or buy them from an offroad products website.
I bought just the spindles. So I know they sell just the spindles.

I got a roll pan from Aim years ago. It was pretty good, but they sent me the wrong one the first time and their service department DID suck!

Ditto all of the above, won't even go into it.

Funny part is that I somehow get emails from some of their sales reps that were sent to other people / companies, interesting stuff and they don't respond to my emails telling them that I'm getting their internal email.
