questions for builders
|
impatient

what is the best way to get my parts from you guys? Should I call every day and complain? It seems The squeaky wheels are getting the grease. This is a serious question. Waiting 2years for parts is ridiculous. What does it take to get my stuff to the front of the lime? |

Are you building a complete tractor, or a motor ? Are just having parts built ? What time frame did they give you ? Some builders are busy. Some will take your money knowing they will never provide. Some will take your money and give less then you paid for. Hell buy a tractor then have the guy back out on you and keep your money. Point in story is do research on who you have dealings with. It will pay off in the long run. Find someone you trust and stay with them. Cheaper is not better. |

It is just an engine kit for a 640 cid john deere super farm motor. Plus some machining, block boring, camshaft etc. .. It is a serious question I want the builders to answer. I am learning that the "price of nice" is not working here. I feel that if I am rude the builder may not do a good job. So what is the best way to handle this? Yes it is a popular builder with a big name. I want to know from a builders point of view how I should handle this. I will not say the builders name because I want to maintain a good relationship with them. |

You need to remember that tractor pulling is a sport for the super wealthy. Every move the super wealthy make is to put the little guy down and out so they can have it all. Unfortunately every engine builder, co op, implement dealer, grain bin dealers have to abide by their rules. So you get caught in the mix of getting left behind and if they don't have anything to do they might get your stuff done. Don't expect to outdo the rich guy because he has spent the money so we have to let him win or he then looks like the dumb ass. Oh Lord, we can't let that happen. |

It really doesn't matter what another builder thinks. You entered into an agreement with this builder.
You and the other party have to decide if you can continue as is or can part ways in a civil manner and move on. If you feel the agreement you entered with that party is not being held up on their end convey that message to them. Find out your options with them and move forward either with a new deadline or see if you can part ways. If they are a big and busy builder I am sure they will not have an issue to move forward elsewhere if you have a timeline that can't be met. Best of luck.
