As the title says anyone have any secret info ? Have they started the prior swamp rat offering dings yet ? Wasn't planning on $780 in car repairs, and don't get paid for about 10 days "midnight on the 19th auto-deposit" if I have to miss out on my FBM's I'ma be pissed :mad:
 
After a week of waiting on parts to come in, My murano now has around the world replacement parts on it. Took me allll damn day but it's now done, and after showering and scrubbing till skin almost came off I'm clean. The bearings went out on the driver side hub, and the bushings went out on the right side lower control arm... also the frigging caliper decided to seize on her which also somehow left nice left deep grooves and gouges in the rotor. SO I just replaced everything on both sides.

2 Mevotech greasable Lower Control Arms "chinese"
2 front EBC premium rotors "Made in england"
2 new red calipers
Set of Power stop z23 pads "USA"
2 NSK "japan" Front hub assemblies
2 Moog Stabilizer Links "chinese"
2 Moog inner link bushings
alot of cursing "pooring down rain and humid as #&#&% out there" and our 2nd Vehicle is now ready to roll.

And that my friends is why I no longer do anything but the most simple of repairs to my car.
Now my grandfathers (God rest his soul) truck is another story. He'd have a fit if I took it to a Shop for repairs before I'd busted every knuckle I have trying fix it. He was a mechanic for a 37 years.

It should be at least 2 weeks before the FBM dings. :D
 
Did a little digging to figure out the same for the Flak Jack. If I recall correctly, it was almost exactly 2 months from the announcement of the burp to the first person received theirs and made a thread. Gave me the impression that the current blades are taking 2-3 months to make it into our hands.
 
I believe my last operation two week orders took 51 to 57 weeks to ship. While past performance is no guarantee of future results, I'd wager you're safe and if not Busse Combat would work with you.
 
Based on the shipping thread I'd hope them to ding within the next 4wks and start to ship within ~6... +/- "two weeks" of course.
 
If you are worried about it call the shop and I am sure they will hold it for you till you are ready. They are incredibly nice and willing to work with their customers
 
Okay so I should be more than good. I've been thinking mid-late october but going by you guys guesstimates mid november is more likely.

Those TGA2s are going to be awhile I'm guessing o_O and the park rangers will likely be random depending on what finishes/versions they do first.
