Tell her $300 and she is going to expect to be able to pick it up!

Better tell her now, otherwise you'll get an earful for causing her to wrench her back! Especially when she figures out that the $300 is only the bill for the GST!!

Priceless x 2 !!

Mate you better head those boxes off at the pass.

First thing Lyn is going to do when she sees that stack of boxes is examine the accounts!

I was under me truck yesterday greasing my nipples (you now how I like a little grease on me nipples dont you) and was looking at my suspension to see how they go about these lifts. Our pitman arm has the second pivot on it for the arm between the two power steering units. The one from the States wont have that cause they use the one unit. If my memory serves me correctly it looked like the second pivot point is bolted on to the pitman arm above the standard trac bar point. I spose you could drill the one from the States. Will have to look into that bro.
