honestly though, youll get the same prices from their website. ebay is just another medium to sell.

and 800 musta been a special deal cause they aren't that now.

I bought mine in January of this year when they were doing one of their 5% off sales, I just looked it up and I paid $786.60 shipped Their prices seem to have gone up but keep an eye on sales and good prices can be had.

Judging by your picture your still running stock wheels. Thats why you rub on the sway bars. I ran 305/70/16s on a 16x8 wheel before the BL and only a 1" tbar crank on my old ranger and didn't rub.
