I purchased my car from TRU this past month (I think; or was it Jan.?) and
am hoping my parts do fine.  So far, using only the one because I have the
convertible body build right now, it's working fine.  I've had it open
sometimes for days at a time with the cylinder at full compression and it
still extends just fine.  Looks like I got the revised parts.  So far so
good...

Yes, this happened to anyone who bought the first round of these sets • (8445,
8446, and 8448) because the first round of the hydraulic cylinders was
defective. All I had to do was write to Consumer Affairs describing the
problem, and they sent the replacement cylinders free of charge, a letter
apologizing and describing the problem with the first round of • production, and
a JiffyPak envelope to send back the defective ones so they could analyze • them
along with the thousands, maybe millions of other defective ones.

Apparently, they're done analyzing.  My replacements arrived today, and • Susan
Williams didn't ask me to send back the broken ones.

(...) You shouldn't have any problems with them, even if you purchased it in January. The problem was with a limited number of the first-round cylinders and I'm sure they caught it and cleared it up way before January. Joel (24 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.technic)
