Poly does take forever these days. Ballistic does too, and I think it's because they are getting busier. The used to get stuff out to me same day. But honestly I was not impressed with the machine work on the set I got from them. I have gotten misalignment spacers from them recently too that where just plain rough. The bearings didn't actually fit in the cups I got, I had to stick them in the lathe and cut some of the ID on them just to get a press fit. Plus they are steel, which if you run them in and out a lot, will eventually get sloppy. Chromoly will not, and for about $8 more than at Ballistic I can get a chromoly cup with nicer machining. I had some comparison pictures at one point, with Kartek stuff next to Ballistic, and the difference is just incredible to me. The cost is more, but to me it's worth it. Plus Kartek ships to me same day, and I get it the day after. I have been very happy with Kartek and I use them as much as I can. I have a lot of their products on a car I am working on right now. Also I honestly like the FK stuff better than the QA1 I have been using, when it come sot rod ends or bearings.
