Everything was great except a sheet of stickers i ordered were a wadded up mess some were peeled off the sheet. If not for that it would be five star the gearbox brace makes my ol 2nd gen feel almost new driving down the road

“Inferior product 2007 LBZ alternator”

Ed K.
3/24/21

I purchased a 250 amp Sinister Diesel alternator that only lasted 8 months after it was installed. Even though it was past the purchase date not the installation date they were willing to make it right. Now after them sending me 4 wrong alternators. They don't know what to do so I'm playing the waiting game. The old style alternator is no longer available and the new style will not work on a 2007 Chevy Duramax Lt classic. The owner said he will make it right. So will see.

The parts came wrapped very well everything ordered was contained in the box. The install was super simple but I can see how a person with zero mechanical ability would struggle. Need a little more instruction in the installation booklet. Parts fit perfectly and look great.

I purchased a pair of blue EGR coolers for my 2010 F350. They fit perfectly and look great. Sinister Diesel's customer service is awesome! I called to check if I could possibly pick them up at their location versus waiting for shipping. The woman on the phone was extremely nice and helpful. She did what she could to track down actual timing for it and even looked into alternative coolers that would work, just to see if there was a faster lead time. Ended up that I just waited for the ones I ordered but I really appreciated the extra effort to look into options! Don't get customer service like that these days! Thank you!

I have a 2016 duramax, I originally bought a 5" to 8" exhaust tip. Well I measured my exhaust and it was 4inch so I had to call and speak with customer service. That was probably the icing on the cake. They were very help and got me my product with-in a couple of extra days. Next time I will measure.

I also ordered the Fuel cap. It looks amazing even though I ordered the green. Felt if I ordered the blue my wife would put regular gas in my truck.

I am very pleased with my purchase.

I received it in a good time frame. The only thing that I would complain about is that the mounting bracket was wrong for the kit.

I have a sleuth of Sinister Diesel parts on my 6.0. Their site is easy to navigate, shipping is fast, customer service is what you'd expect from a top tier company, and products are always on point. I highly recommend using Sinister Diesel parts on your F250. You'll never be disappointed!

Tip for consumers:
Use them. You’ll love everything about them.

Products used:
Exhaust Tip, Blue Spring Kit, Turbo Up Pipe and Down Pipe, intake, etc

Easy search bars easy navigation. I despise computers and online shopping. I will usually use in store service to order my parts they don't carry. This was simple. Ordered ebp sensor, pigtail and blue spring upgrade for fuel all fit like a charm. Seem to be working as well.

I called Sinister with a technical question regarding a How to: repair on my 05 GMC Duramax Primer pump assembly. They recommended new O-Rings and shipped them to me without charge. No questions asked and very friendly both in Warranty and Technical dept's

You don't get that kind of service anymore. Thanks Julian

I received the help I needed when I asked for it trying to find the correct product for my truck. The product came faster than expected, which was nice. The product also had proper instruction on how to install and has worked great since I installed this. Would recommend in the future.
