You may have learned a lesson the hard way as I did. I bought a power steer rack the June of last year. Installed it
in July and it's now failed on me. I can't even use the lifetime
warranty Maval claims as they will only deal with the distributer. In Mavals reply they stated we deal with pallets
of returned racks every month and not individual ones. 
Not quite sure how to take that,rude or a warning that their
quality sucks. 
Busdepot did offer to still accept my core for
store credit 
You may have better luck dealing with Trevor if it is one of
his faucets and not one of the "before skylight guy" made 
ones. 
Lesson learned is not to hoard parts anymore. The quality 
has gone to far downhill to chance it. I am making an effort
to clear my shelfs of my hoard...
