Placed an order for a clutch over week and a half ago still haven't received shipping confirmation. Called several times.... No answer. Left at least five voicemails.... No reply. Sent email on his website.... No reply.
Should have checked here first..... But then again I shouldn't have to research every off road company I buy from.
If no reply by tomorrow I will be filing a dispute with my CC company I guess...
I've ordered from a lot of different vendors and Wab Fab is by far the slowest shipping vendor I have ever dealt with. It took almost three weeks for him to ship a small order of in stock Trail Gear parts and I never got replies to my inquiries as to when my order would ship. From now on I stick to Frontier 4x4 and Low Range Offroad for my Toyota parts. They both ship right away and respond to my messages.
I'm sure you'll get your parts from Wab Fab, he just lacks a sense of urgency and seems to ship orders when he feels like it.
WabFab is slow and unresponsive. Been that way for a while...
Business's that want to retain their customer base usually advertise that they are closed or on vacation. I do not know the current reason why WabFab won't respond but just sayin.
there has been numerous threads about wabfab being a shitty vendor, usually the chitchat bandwagon jumps aboard to defend him though. search if youre curious, the threads get started for a reason.
and yes you should research every offroad company you order from, its not like stopping at a random store while youre driving down the road to get some cereal.

just to throw some more fuel on the fire, I ordered from him a while ago. Never heard a single word after the order. Sent tons of emails and called and I got nothing. Ended up calling the CC company
There have been alot of these threads over the years and the worst part in my mind is the way the waskilywabbit responds. Totaly unprofessional,childish, zero fucks given attitude. I seem to recal a pretty fucked up deal over a high lift or something? Anyway the waskilywabbit seems like a waskilywetard to me, I wouldnt buy from him. :flipoff2:
And that's all you need to know about dealing with WabFab. He's not a bad seller, just ask him....
Spread the word, let everybody on all of the forums know.. but it won't mean a thing. This exact scenario has played out just like this for years. People still order from him, then they go and find these threads after the fact.
I dont get Why wabfab isnt banned from p4x4?
I like how he states that his business is 'just for fun' to me that implies he doesnt take his business or his customers seriously and that is exactly what his actions show:shaking:
He spams the crap out of the facebook page for 4WD Toyota Owner Magazine. Bad enough that many have complained about it and every time they do someone brings up a bad business experience with him and then the Admins delete the thread for him since he is a "paid vendor". :shaking:
He did end up refunding my money after I posted on here. No explanation as to why I wasn't getting the part I ordered.... just an email saying that my money had been refunded.
I was always amazed at the number of nutswingers this douche had on here and on YotaTech. He's a classic e-tough badass, but everyone knows he's a fucking pussy in real life.
What a Douchebag.
I dont care how great your products are, I would never do business with WabFab just from his responses to this thread.
Why dont you google yourself, its pages of people with bad experiences with you.
I ordered a TG SAS kit from Wab Fab a few months ago. I got a killer 4th of July discount as well as took advantage of the free shipping for that month. Was pretty happy with what it cost me.
My order was not shipped for about a month, which made me nervous as I had never spent that much online with no shipping notifications within a few days. So that was worrying.
I could not get in touch via phone with him.
But my in-website messages (like on the wabfab website) were answered within the day or at most in 3 days, so that was not all bad. I was by no means left hanging.
My overall experience with Wabfab is that I would order from him again, but not if I needed it ASAP. He seemed to have it together, just slow. Not the end of the world for me.
LOL, After the blatant douchebaggery shown in this thread alone you still vouch for this loser? Anyone who still does any business with this guy after all the evidence shown here and many places on the web deserves what they get
LOL!!! I'm LMAO at his responses! If I'm ever in need of his stuff, I'm buying from da wabbit!
