I called Superlift today inquiring about the steering stabilizer shocks I ordered back in April

They have now pushed me out till September 11

The rep said I'm the only one to have ordered that part number since April and long ago Superlift had stopped stocking it, so its a special order.

I did learn from him that Superlift gets their shocks from Gabriel and he mentioned that now Skyjacker does too, he said previously Skyjacker was getting their's from Monroe.

My originals as supplied from Quigley are Skyjacker lable.

So now I'm going to contact Quigley and see what's happening there.

I told the Superlift guy that I'd cancel the order if they are not in by September 11.

Hi Sean

Any word back from your supplier on those hard drives?

Not that I can spring for them at the moment with the house closing in a month.

what a night. hope everyone is out enjoying thirsty thursday in celebration of FRIDAY TOMORROW!!!!!!
The first thing you do when working with pins and big trains. Bevel the pin.Then bash it with a BFH. Works every time... Well, almost.

Played with the jeep a little. Then got frustrated, and went hunting. Crop damage tags, shot one spike buck and a small doe.

Good morning, everyone. Just dropping in before I head off to work. My brother tells me we're getting Honeycrisp apples in for this weekend. Joy to the freakin world. Those things have a cult following I swear. People have been asking about them since August. We also got cider in this weekend. It's gonna be a busy day.
