Hello guys and girls. I wanted to thank EVERYONE that has done business with and supported EH since we started this project. Many of you have given referrals, ordered parts, given me ideas on product, helped advertise, etc. I appreciate all you have done to help out EH over the last couple of years.

The E Commerce business for HUMMER/ Jeep products has gotten very competitive since I started EH. There are quite a few companies out there set up similar to mine. I have always looked for ways to be more competitive and offer products that I can stock (and afford to stock). To be able to compete with those larger parts houses, while retaining the same level of customer service, would require some large changes with EH. Adding a shop, service bays, warehouse, and having the financial support to do so would be the start of that. Over the last few months, I have been looking to partner up with either an investor or shop that is not in the "Corporate America" category. This partner would need to have the same values on customer service, quality parts, with direct vendor/ manufacture relationships.

I have been working with a local shop here in CO. High Country Performance 4X4 has helped me over the last couple of years with some products. They are a family owned business since 1980. They do specialize in a couple of specific platforms such as the TJ/JK market, however, they also stand behind other makes/ models and well. Toyota, Ford, GM, HUMMER are all supported at this shop. I have been in there quite a few times and have seen complete builds with engine swaps to simple modifications. Their techs are trained to support the products they sell. It was also important that they support Tread Lightly, Stay The Trail, and BlueRibbon Coalition as I have done over the years.

I have been given an opportunity to join this growing company and continue doing what I enjoy. The things I have been doing with EH, I'll continue to do with HCP4X4.
EH will be set aside as I will be focusing on my new position with their team. I am excited for this change!!!

What does the mean for current/ future EH customers and support on this forum?
I will still be checking in daily as I do now. Current in-house orders/ back orders will process through EH without interruption. Future orders after this Friday (05/25) will process through HCP4X4. I will still be supporting this forum as always and be able to work with you all still. My contact info will change and will be provide (once available) in this thread and a separate thread that is easier to reference vs reading through all of this.


The same products that I have offered will still be available:

GOBI, ARB, WARN, Viking, SUPERWINCH, PIAA, Rigid, Hella, LightForce, COBRA, FIRESTICK, BFG, Toyo, Nitto, Truck Vault, Rancho, Bilstein, Fox, Magnaflow, XD Wheels, Hutchinson Beadlocks, BMF Wheels, Walker Evans Beadlocks, WeatherTech, Husky, Ventvisor, Rotopax, and GoPro.

I'm sure there are more, but these were the ones off the top of my head. As i get more info on my upcoming changes, I will keep you all posted.

Thank you,
Tim G.

Thanks Chris, yes, you can order through me still!!!! Pretty much, things are staying as they are now, just different contact info and invoices will go through HCP4X4.

They are going to put out an official press release on all the forums explaining of my change being made and how orders can be placed as they have always been.

The EH site will stay up for now...with a re-dirrect and my new contact info.

Tim has been a great supporter of this forum and its members and I anticipate that we'll continue to have a great relationship going forward with HCP4X4. We've had other companies try and take his place here and we've turned them down. Tim has been a loyal and unwavering partner to H4O and we are excited to keep this rolling forward.

Tim, I wish you all the best and all the success in the world to you in this new endeavor! You know that you will get my business.

For those who have never done business with Timgco, you need to - to see what customer service is all about - he's all about making the customer feel like you are his #1 priority. I truly feel that whenever dealing with Tim. Thank you for supporting us and the forum! In turn, I will support you wherever you are and whoever you work for! :cheers:
