Trailgear bought Longfield.

They already changed them, there's no 300m internals.

I knew it was going to happen.... China made junk .... Quantity over quality..... Sad day

Probably should check your facts, they aren't made in China...

I'm talking about trail gear as a whole

What is funny is everyone is cutting Trailgear but if anyone here had a chance to take their Craigslist or backyard fab "shop" to the level Matt has you would in a heartbeat. Good for him on his successes and people will still keep buying.

Until there are a string of material related failures then I would keep buying them if I was a Toyota guy.

There is still a big difference between quality and quantity

So if my Longfields break I'm stuck with these??

Nothing is stopping anyone here from making a product that they deem superior.

Has anyone actually done a hardness test of their own or compared the two in realworld use?

 

[lilyota]

You just don't get it do you?

Bobby used to.

But now he is dead and trailgear OWNS his old testing machine.




Bobby was always fueled by making US wheelers the BEST product he could bring to market, not profit.


Tg has always been fueled with profit and marketing. They ONLY care about the Longfield name, not the product.

Why buy Sonny's heads when Procomps flow pretty well for a third the price? :corn:

 

[DHR Darren]

You just don't get it do you?

Actually I do get it.

Bobby was an icon and made a great product that he was deeply passionate about. Trailgear bought that product line and cares more about corporate numbers.

It sucks for the purists but it has happened. You can make the best of it and continue on or sit and complain about it and do nothing.

Because Sonnys are everywhere used. :redneck:
