Tempe got sandblasted today

Haha it is funny you say that because that is exactly what I said to a workmate today!
I just ordered all of the parts, except the shocks, from Northridge 4x4. I found an online coupon, and it ended up being 200 cheaper, and no tax so essentially they saved me 350 bucks over amazon. The tax is slowly getting higher and higher on Amazon. Not sure why or how, but the tax they wanted was 10 percent and unless something changed here in AZ that I didn't know, that is more than our regular state tax. Plus the parts weren't even coming from Amazon, but I divided and conquered, and it is Northridge 4x4 to the rescue
@bobthetj03 Not only did I go "Full retard" I ordered the Currie steering and anti-rock.
The only slightly disappointing part if anything is disappointing is I couldn't find the Rancho 9000Xls till after August so I decided on the 5000X that saved me over 200 bucks too, and people rave about them. I really needed the shocks first to cycle the suspension, and I didn't want to wait till August plus it was an easy sell as it saves a lot of money. I think I will be happy with them. I ran the original 5000's on my YJ, and they were fine, so these new gas shocks have to rock. Now as it is the shocks will be the first things showing up. Which is good because I can tear it apart and cycle the suspension as I am waiting for the other parts to show up!
"I am so excited, I must say!"
have you taken out that second mortgage yet?

I've got enough equity in the house that it wouldn't hurt. I'll have to talk about the bank about it. It would depend on the interest rate and what not.
I'm in the far East valley, next to Superstition Mountain. Got more that dust, had a severe microburst hit the house, lots of rain.
Not only peeled shingles, but tar paper down to plywood as well.
Sky was very angry, but my Jeeps are fine.

Sorry about your House, but grateful the Jeeps survived. It was a pretty amazing storm. Glad you are OK!
Are you sure your're not getting the upgrades "comped" by the manufacturers? In exchange for leading us minions to buy in? :aplastao:
Did they give you an idea how long it will take for all the parts to get there? Congratulations.... You'll be ready for Moab.

Haha yeah things can change so fast right?
Oh yeah they will start trickling in at the end of this week, and I should have everything by the end of next week.
shocks will be here on Thursday.
Resistance is futile.
I've had my '05 TJ less than 2mo and already taken so much (good) advice from him and spent way more than I thought I would after getting the TJR. I just priced out a regear the other day .. it may not happen immediately but it's coming. Brake job and OPDA replacement happening next week.
Really happy with how the Jeep is changing though.
