He is on like 20 other forums....become a member there and PM him if you MUST get ahold of him on a forum....Gave you email addresses and his phone number is posted in every thread he posts in:

Josh Truex
Dave Hickman Racing
Dh-Racing.Com
(661)547-1508

What more do you want? He f*cked so many members on this site over and he violated the vender disclaimor enough to get himself banned. Those conditions spell out that he will not get vendorship fee refunded...period. Think of someone other than yourself for a change...he didn't screw you, but he sure as hell screwed other members.

Holy f*ck, don't u f*cking tell me to "think of someone other than your self for a change". What the **** have I ever done on this board to make u say that.

Plus, what would it hurt for him to stay on the board? There's been enough bad talk about him that most people wouldn't buy his products anyways. You act like you are getting something out of banning him from this site? WHAT? A peace of mind....no one said u had to buy his products.

What have you done to make me say that? Open up your eyes and realize that Josh and DH lied and misled alot of us. He misled us about the pulley in numerous ways and refused to give us a refund after significant delays. He sent out shitty quality parts and refused to refund us spare one occasion.

You say that you want him to stay on this site because it is more convenient for you and he hasn't f*cked you over YET. I tell you to think about fellow 7thgeners rather than yourself because he f*cked over enough of us to write a list.

You say Josh should get a refund and be allowed back on this site and I say you're self centered for saying such a thing. Josh sent us a defective part at the cost of around 5k (pulleys alone...more for Melissas head) and you whine because he lost $550 and you can't PM him? You have phone numbers and email addresses...deal.

If he was allowed to stay on this site and sell his POS parts then there would always be newbies who would see his posts, get misled, and get screwed over. People need to know that the website doesn't tolerate any vendor treating its members the way DH did (this is why the vendor disclaimor was developed and this is why the repercussions of violating this agreement were upheld). DH/Josh were warned on two occasions and members still got no refund and DH disrespected us. Maybe you want Josh on here because it serves you...but he diserves what he got...end of story.

It seems that 7then members and 7thgen admin will not bend over and take it when a vendor mistreats them.....good on us/them.

How am I self centered when I am saying to bring someone else back onto the board....that doesn't make any sense. As for the PMing part. Of course it's more convenient for me to PM him because there's a lot of important stuff about the deals/transactions we have done.

I am in no way saying that members have to buy his ****, or that you guys didn't get ****ed over. I don't understand the whole pulley thing because some fit, some didn't. I agree that the members with pulley's that tried to put them on and they didn't fit should get their money back.

"What have you done to make me say that? Open up your eyes and realize that Josh and DH lied and misled alot of us."

Agreed, many of us did get misled, me included, I ended up selling my pulley over EBAY.

Is he a bad vendor? To some, he may be. To me, and a few others, he still a pretty nice guy that we make deals with.

If the majority of the people on this board agree that he should be banned then **** it, let him be banned, but stealing that 550 from him is no better then what he did. Remeber that.

Obviously he knew the rules, and obviously he broke them. You break your vendor rules, you don't get your money back.

Is it really more complicated than that?

You were acting self centered because you prioritized mere convenience over the vendor disclaimer . Derek made the rules, Josh paid the duckets, broke the rules, got booted the f*ck off, and gets no refund.

Saying that we are no better that he is for not paying him back is like saying that fighting back when you get decked by a random person is wrong. Imagine yourself in a situation where you're at a show and some midgit runs up and punches you in the nose....are you gonna fight back? Knowing that you just said yes to that question means that you should realize how irrational your thinking is. You can't expect the midgit not to get knocked the f*ck out because he knew better than to run up and cold **** some guy...just like Josh knew better. The rules were spelled out for him and he misled us to sell parts..defective parts with no refund....Does he diserve a refund? No.

It doesn't matter what the majority thinks when you think about it...Derek banned Josh b/c he violated the disclaimer, not because the poll said 75% want Josh banned.

A nice guy? He ****ed you over, said we were all a joke, refuses to give us a refund, and says we are all jealous of his CRX.....but hey, call him up and get f*cked over again....you'll diserve every bit of it.

He personally never ****ed me over, I bought the pulley from another member.

I agreed I would "punch the midget right back in the face to.....if he hit me."

If he hit another member of the site, I would probably be pissed but I wouldn't go to these lengths.

My thinking is not irrational no matter what you say. And enough of this bullshit. I've never had a problem with him before so I can't complain in any means besides the fact that he got banned. Other then that, have fun looking for someone else to produc parts for us.

There are ALWAYS other alternatives. Besides, no parts are better than shitty parts that are presented in a misleading fashion...a waste of time and money.

Well, maybe I jumped to conclusions with that, I apologize. It annoyed me that you were defending him.

And if I was in your situation I would be anoyed to.

You are probably hearing me good talk about a guy that just ripped your wallet out of your pocket. But isn't that a part of everyday life. Some good some bad, we never win them all, well with DH barely anybody won, but atleast I can't complain.

agreed. He didn't rip me off, I never bought a pulley or any other DH product, I just noticed what he did and called him out on it. I didn't want to let him get away with it I guess.....the result of 8 hours a day at work with not much to do but read abotu how he was f*cking members over.

Anyway, I called this morning a bunch of times and left a message. Never got a call back. So I think it's gonna be a while before it gets installed. This town has no shops anywhere. Some places I called didn't even know what a cylinder head is!

And I just don't have the tools to do this myself. I feel comfortable opening stuff up, but I can't even get the header bolts off! I don't know what to do now.

bah dude, that sucks. I wanted to install it myself, but when I realized I would have to move the cam and all that stuff...no good.

Back on that subject that i just mentioned....what would u have to do to move the cam over to the new head? No timing needs to be adjusted right? Or do u have to do certain things to it?

I'm getting more and more confused. I thought the timing has to be set after everything it put back. But that's with the cam gear and pulley or something. Right now I just wanna get my header on, but that's not even working and now the bolt heads are rounded off.

Well it's in Vegas now. They just moved. Also I think they're keeping the address secret for obvious reasons. They didn't put a return address on anything they sent out to me.

What am I gonna do? I can't get this stuff installed.
