I posted about their quality control last year.....Tech line was ZERO help.
Left several messages for Tim Cole and never received a
return call.

Two sets currently residing my weight box.
Hey John - which lifters did you try? I don't see any short travel lifters listed for Mopar. I've used the short travel lifters for the Chevy without any issues, but the preload had to be set right, and I'm kinda picky about spring pressures, too.
P.S. Hard to believe that Tim didn't return a call, he's ALWAYS returned every call I made, a couple times it was the next day, but still called back.
