Subscribe to their email newsletter. They just had a free shipping day two weeks ago, and only advertised it in the email.

Awesome, will do!!

Wanting to purchase a bumper, hardine metal fenders, aluminum inner fenders and pump relocation kit.

Free shipping would save me near $300, so I believe worth the wait.

Last year I purchased and installed the Game Changer 2.5 inch lift. I installed 35's and notice some rubbing, so I'm wondering if I can just swap out the 2.5 inch springs for 3.5 springs without any additional parts or modifications?

If you go to 3.5" springs, I think all you need to do is move track bar to other hole in bracket at axle. I have 3.5 kit with minor rubbing with 35's and stock fenders. O||||||O

Ps, and maybe slight adjustment to control arm length to keep axle centered in wheel openings.

I gave up waiting on free shipping. Order $2700 worth of fenders, bumper and inner fenders lining. Now the wait to see when I will get them, anybody know the shippment times?

Looking at now picking up an ACE tire carrier and either ACE or VMS weld on rock sliders.

I got the inner front part of the overline flares a week after I ordered them. It takes a lot longer when you get them powder coated though. It took a month for me to get the exo corners because there was an imperfection in the powder coat. They always have great quality, it just takes time sometimes
