SharaDon valve body

[newtothegame]

Hi everyone!
Looking into purchasing the edge TC and valve body combo from MOE'S Performance but for some reason SharaDon parts aren't listed on his website anymore. Has anyone noticed this too?

You might call up Matt from Moe's performance to see why it is not listed. I have a 2009 and i purchased the valvebody and tc combo from him.

Thanks 09SMOKINHEMI!

I'll give Matt a call on mon. What stage VB did you go with? Reason being is I'm leaning into the stage 3 but a bit worried about the hard shifts lol.

I can tell you that the stage II is pretty mild. there is a feeling that I maybe should have gone with the stage III but I am still very happy with it.

He may have taken them off due to the fact that there kinda scarce- this is what he told me when I ordered mine.
with Moe's you get the valve body with no core charge- so you keep your old one.
Maybe that's what they're facing now- shortage of the stock units.

With the stage 3, you feel firmer shifts but under normal driving it is barely noticeable. Under hard driving you feel it more, but it isnt annoying

We had to pull the Sharadon parts off the site simply because they were not able to ship parts out as quickly as we expect. The parts are great, but I have high standards when it comes to shipping times. It was taking them up to a week to get the parts boxed up and shipped, and then they were all sent USPS slow mail which is 4-7 business days. This means it was 2 weeks from the day the part was ordered before it was delivered. This normally is not a problem if the customer knows about the delay ahead of time. Where we had trouble is that most people wanting valvebodies and transmissions needed them ASAP because their trucks were down. Its not a good situation when someone is without a truck, and then has to wait 2 weeks to receive the part.

Again, nothing wrong with the parts, but if Moe's is going to put there name behind it, then we expect quicker delivery times. I would not hesitate to buy from Sharadon direct, but at this time, we will not be offering the parts through Moe's website.

The guys at Sharadon do amazing work and have built some monster engine/transmission setups including the 370" stroker and stage 3 Transmission that I ran in my own 03 Ram. I have been very happy with the quality of everything that I have purchased from them.

Shoot, Matt, put em back on ur site and just write "2 week delay" on them. I bet there are still some people that will know ahead of time when they will need it?

I've been waiting for my Valve Body too. I talked with Danny and got it shipped UPS but normally he would have taken it thru the mail. For him it's a different direction. I can understand. I told him that I could have UPS pick the package up at his shop if needed but he already shipped it UPS. I will be sending him my used Valve body for a store credit. When I talk with him again, I will see if using UPS and their pick-up abilities as a viable option for them. It's only a couple of extra dollars. Matt, maybe you could help with that. They're great guys and offer quality products. Danny had my Valve body done in a couple of days which was very reasonable considering they're a performance shop.

Maybe it is just me, but if I had a business at a minimum I would have the product ready for purchase. People put thousands on credit cards and long delays are horse chit IMO. I would dump them too no matter how good they are. I wonder if they are even embarrassed or if they just don't care. Seams like a lot of not giving a damn is going around lately.

Its not like that at all. Like said above, they are a performance shop, not just an online retailer. This means that they cant just sit around prepping valvebodies all day because they are working on cars/trucks in the shop from open to close. They also just installed an in house dyno, so they run the dyno and do tuning as well. I have no bad feelings towards Sharadon in any way. I just feel that at this time, it is better to work with them directly instead of going through a dealer like Moe's. Like Hemi_Express said above, his VB was ready in 2 days which is great. I would not hesitate to purchase from Sharadon directly.

As an online consumer for the privilege my business I demand immediate delivery or I just wont buy that item, and I will tell you why. I recently bought a bumper online to the tune of 2 grand, and the company notified me of a delay for the excuse of the day. I had talked to Visa and your rights end after 60 days from date of purchase. it is "possible" to get a refund after 60 days, but you have no right to it and in fact you can be charged for something you never receive if you didn't complain within 60 days from purchase. So any guy can make his own decisions on what he buys online with visa, but when I here delays and slow shipping I go back to that feeling I had when I thought I might have to pay 2 fricking grand for a bumper that didn't come. I ended up receiving the bumper after 2 months, but I am not sailing on that ship again. For local business you have rights, you can take them to small claims, but when you get into a dispute online it is eye opening how little protection you have. When I am ready for a VB I will see what I can get locally, maybe someone locally can order a Sharadon for me.


However, what would work for me is if they don't bill my card until they ship, then all is good. But if they charge my card and then stall because they have more important stuff, that isn't for me personally.
