there are hundreds of topics on this, Tg will not release that information. It has been proven over and over they use "inferior" (Cough cough Chinese) metals.
Explain how else they are able to under cut everyone else on prices?
America also makes really terrible products and cheap steel. Just because somthing is american made doesnt mean its good. Again please show me where it says the steel is from china, That post you linked just shows some random person CLAIMING to have worked in QC and the material make up matches that of somthing that comes from china. Please explain to me how that means that their products are indeed from china.
Again and again i could go on about how many claims are unfounded but the fact of the matter remains that there is absolutely no proof and people yammer on about how they want american made parts on their jap truck just crack me the hell up.
