Yeah might have to, my garage is only a single Jeep garage lol.. but yeah David at Northridge said it'll ship late next week, so probably two weeks till its here. 7 boxes, including bump stops and bilstein 5100s.. hopefully all the shit gets here. There's definitely a case of beer in it for ya, probably gonna need some help. And I really hope you're right Dave, I'd love to see numbers at least outta the negatives lol

Oh.....and about the Bilsteins....The kid at Northwest Customs told me that the seals in the Bilstein shocks aren't holding up to the cold up here. He said the only aftermarket shock that he's found to hold up are Ranchos. Of course this is only what "he" said, so I have no first hand knowledge. Just wanted to let you know. You might want to ask David about this before he ships them.

Man, getting stuff shipped up here is killing me! I stopped by NW customs in Soldotna to check some prices... they don't use lube there when they ask you to bend over, probably won't be back. Then I called one of the vendors from this forum for some sliders... they wanted $400 for shipping!!! I shipped an entire car up here for $800!
I called Jeep add ons, another vendor on this forum and they are getting the sliders to my door for 440 total. I highly recommend calling them if you are having something shipped up here... we still take it in the shorts because of our location, but so far they've treated me right and they get your order out right away. Can't wait til they get here! BTW, NW customs wanted $599 for the sliders and I had to find a way to get them shipped to WA state for that price.

Hmmmmm.....that's odd. He used to have fairly decent prices on some things like wheel/tires, lights... But then again I haven't been in there for over a year now, and I've never actually bought anything from him either.
He did have some decent deals on wheels and lights... stuff he had in the store, maybe it's just because I wanted some special order items? Who knows. He was supposed to call me back today with a price for a warn, but i haven't heard from him. AIH had a decent deal on a Superwinch... I almost got it, but I think I'm going to run with the Warn. Still undecided. It's nice to just be able to run down, look at something and then buy it. You never know what you're gonna get with this mail order bride stuff.

My only issue with the guys there is they are still really cocky. They treat dudes like crap if you don't have moderate mechanical skills. A coworker needed to change his clutch slave cylinder in a Ford pickup and they totally blew him off.
