I found a add on Crag’s list a for a Procomp 2 ― lift I spoke to the guy some Spanish kid he told me that he bought a larger lift for this 2door JK from his friend and wanted to sell his old lift. I was out of town so I sent a friend of mine that knows nothing about Jeeps to pick it up for me. Today when I saw the lift it was 2 inch spacers and OEM coils and white Fortec shocks. All I have was his Cell phone number (305) 904-5613. He tell me that he won’t give me my money back, he said to sell it to someone else, I feel I got ripped off. If you know who this is let me know. I don’t think its right to rip someone off like this.

He did tell me that he was part of a Jeep club he just did not say which one.

I did a search on the number and it lists this name "Jose Anzola" The number comes up as a Hialeah number. Hope this helps tracking down the person.

Do you have a link to the original Craig's List ad? And how much did you pay?


edit: here is the link: http://miami.craigsl...2541518076.html

and he links this as the kit for sale: http://www.procompus...=5491&plID=1808

If it doesn't match, he should CHEERFULLY refund your money . . .

They meet at Dadeland mall. My friend told me he was not driving a Jeep he was in his girl friends car he thinks. I have been texting him today and he told me that is how Craigslist works. what a scum bag. I would have never thought that a Jeep guy would screw another Jeep guy. I really hope to find him. Just to show him that sooner or later it catches up to you.

I think I'm going to try to get in touch with the Roco 4X4 guys. They may know him.

Sorry I posted this on the for sale section this morning.


I found a add on Crag’s list a for a Procomp 2 ½ lift I spoke to the guy some Spanish kid he told me that he bought a larger lift for this 2door JK from his friend and wanted to sell his old lift. I was out of town so I sent a friend of mine that knows nothing about Jeeps to pick it up for me. Today when I saw the lift it was 2 inch spacers and OEM coils and white Fortec shocks.

I don’t think its right to rip someone off like this.

He did tell me that he was part of a Jeep club he just did not say which one.

I was able to find the guys name with the help of JeepNWilly he was able to find that the number belongs to "Jose Anzola" from Hialeah I think he maybe go to Roco 4X4 he had a really thick Spanish accent.

Thanks guys. I'm going to have to wait to get a lift now and I really wanted one. Oh well. I will keep looking I may start visiting house soon. He does not have a common name at all.

I know but I really did not want to lose out on it. I did not have the cash to buy a new kit. Well now I don't have any.

Is the number listed a cell phone number? I think we should all start lighting his text inbox up with 'scumbag' messages...I'm game. Any chance you have a valid email address for him? I can think of a few lists to subscribe him to. He could also be a part of Miami4x4...they've been know to play those types of games in the past...

who knows that may work. I think everyone should call him and tell him not to rip of another Jeep guy.

His number (305) 904-5613

I checked all his pictures, he doesnt even have a jeep....and i have no friends in common with him, im friends with most "hispanics" with 4x4s as you say...

on the side note...i think it has nothing to do with him being hispanic..just saying...i been screw over by white people and you dont see me calling everyone white trash and saying it must be because he is white...

you simple got screw over by not doing things right...go check what you are buying and if you dont like it dont buy it.. not saying what this kid did was right but still is more your fault than his....

good luck and hope you get your money back.

FYI, I am guessing you do not know Ruben (Valfam). He is Hispanic as well and so are several of us who responded here. Most of us are friends with as you say white people and we joke with each other back and forth just like square versus rounds.

The point is that the guy is a scum bag and gives 4 wheels and latinos a bad name. And no one ever said that was him on Facebook. if you look back on my post I stated that I never saw him and my friend did not remember. You have to admit that most latinos look alike dark eyes and dark hair.

In closing the fact remains this latino with a heavy Spanish accent is a scum bag and one day we will meet.

Really, William? I mean...really?!?!? Fortunately, not many of us think that way. I gave a hispanic guy an axle housing he needed one time (for free) and he promised to return the intermediate shaft that was in it when he took it. I never got my axle shaft back...I just got the shaft period! If I had let that affect the way I feel about hispanic/latino/Cuban/guahiro/escoria offroaders, I wouldn't have good friends like Ruben and Willy...plus a whole host of others. I could care less about your race/creed/color/gender or any other demographic qualifier. If you're a douchebag...you're a douchebag.
