Expensive week...
Well it's been a very expensive week for me... at least it's all good stuff!
Came home from work Monday to find that my Bowflex had been delivered, then the next day I recieved my '07 Ranger service manual set I bought from jimd1050.
The best thing is what I just came home with tonight...
It actually has a pretty good (long) story to go along with it. A month or so ago I was bored and looking around for a body lift for my truck. Then I looked around a bit for a SL... was just going to shut the computer down when a google search came up with a Superlift for sale in Calgary on Craiglist so I called the guy and talked to him for a while. Turns out he bought this kit new a couple years back for his '04 and it had a few issues so he traded the truck and then had this kit sitting in his garage.
After a day or two we worked out a deal and I told him I'd take it once he got me some shipping quotes. Then I remembered a guy I know from our local Mustang club had moved out to Alberta. Turns out the only guy I know in the western half of the country was 10 minutes away from the guy with the superlift!
I emailed him the cash, and the seller dropped the kit off at his house.
It actually gets even better, the guy who I know who lives out there pm'd me and said his buddy, who is a trucker who lives in London, was out in Alberta and would be heading back to London. He was able to bring it all the way back here to me for a good price, and I picked it up this afternoon!
I already picked up my XJ driveshaft last weekend, and have the adapter for it ordered.
By the way.... anyone care to guess what I picked the Superlift up for? Remember it's BRAND new! Andrew/ShadowRanger08 you're not allowed to "guess" haha

I already asked him before, but that was before he was really considering going back to stock.
