roadsafe ball joints & tie rod ends should be the same numbers then without the p in front
teh sway bar d bushes would cross over to a nolathane part number too.

i'm not normally one to do this, but some things just really pi55 me off and i've gotta say something, so i feel i should warn my Bellett brothers and sisters about companies that let us down, or just plain shaft us....

"queensland power brakes" in eagle farm, qld.
go by "onlinebrakeparts" on ebay.
DON'T TOUCH THEM WITH A BARGE POLE!!!!!
good at taking your money.... but don't expect anything other than silence in return.

basically, i purchased some slotted brake rotors for my XR8 falcon thru ebay off them.
purchased 13/7/12, paid immediately thru paypal.
supposed 9 day delivery.... i'm still waiting.
took them 3 days (16/7) to advise me that they won't send to a PO box, which they make no mention of on their listings... so i gave them my home address. also, i advised if they need to be signed for that there'd be nobody home, so if a sig is needed i'll make other arrangements with them.
no response, so i assume all is ok.
come 28/7, no rotors.
i contact them.... hadn't been sent!
i advised that i needed them by 1/8 without fail, and that nobody is home to sign for them....
response from them on 30/7 saying they've been shipped, so i again assume that no sig is ok AND that delivery time is ok.
by 7/8, no rotors still. i contact them.... no response.
i contact again on 10/8 saying that i've now had to get another set from elsewhere, and had to make other arrangements with the car, at more expense in both cases, so i want a refund.... surprise, surprise, no response.
i've contacted them again early today (13/8) asking for someone to call me today about any and all questions, as it's been exactly 1 month since purchase. again, no response.
anyway, i notice they close at 4pm, so i've just messaged them again saying that i've opened a dispute case with ebay/paypal and i'll get my money back.

if anyone knows these clowns at "queensland power brakes/onlinebrakeparts", tell them Brett says:
"have a nice day...."
BE WARNED FELLOW BELLETT-HEADS!!!!!
