How much tax/duty are they going to rape you with when all that gear arrives?

The trail that goes from enfield to beaver bank?

 

I HAVE NO IDEA AND I'M SCARED TO FIND OUT. I didn't check before I ordered it. But I found a "duty calculator " online and it said 345 bucks, which isn't toooooo painful. Dad was telling me when he was ordering parts for his bike they sometimes doubled the cost of the part and I almost shit my pants.. He also said it was a hit or miss thing too, but we'll find out Friday (fingers crossed) when it gets here!

Yeah that one!

 

UPS, DHL, FedEx are all bad if you ship ground.

 

Yeah, a bunch of guys at work said that USPS is the way to go. They shipped it FedEx, so all that's left to do is wait and find out exactly how bad I'm going to be reamed. On the plus side its in Ontario!

 

Coming ground or air? It's not the taxes or duty that is the killer, its the "brokerage". Which is bullshit and they charge whatever they want. USPS/Canada Post have a flat rate $10 brokerage fee so its not bad.

 

Fuck sakes. Its coming ground.. I really should have checked it out before hand but I didn't know about it. Sucks

 

Yeah air is cheaper because it includes brokerage. haha
I hope youre ready to open that wallet! haha

 

Yeah I hope it is hit and miss and they miss me.... But we will find out!

 

Soooo, I have all my pieces except the UCA's.. They're currently in LA, and have been since the 22nd.. I'm getting so impatient.. I wanna hit the pipeline before the snow hits hahah

Everything else is sitting pretty in my garage just waiting to be put on..

 

Get that rear done

 

Planning on doing the lift tomorrow.

As long as I get out of work decently soon.. I mean its 4:43 in the morning..

Up for wheelin' next weekend? I still wanna try more of the pipeline..

Anyone else down?

 

I should be around

 

I got it all together.. I'm surprised not more stuff was seized on it.. And I'm also surprised no one mentioned the shitty ass setup for how the control arms are in. I started taking them out and had to watch videos on how to take them out.. The videos told me "if your bolt is put it from the front to the back you have to cut the head of the bolt off and pull it through" well fuck that because it's Saturday night and I don't have another bolt.. I had to bend part of my wheel well out of the way to get the bolt by. What the hell Toyota? Anyways, after I got that all sorted out she went petty smooth! didn't break any bolts! and my leaf hanger/pivot whatever bolts weren't seized in the bushing which I'm really surprised (and happy) about!!

I'm getting it aligned today, so I should be good to head out this weekend!! You down for this weekend Craig? Brandon said he's game, hopefully he doesn't break anything else on the poor truck..

Anyone else wanna come venture down the pipeline?

 

2nd gen problems. ha

 

I was pissed!!! Dad had didn't know what to do either..

Ah well, it's done now and I'll be picking it up in an hour or so. I haven't driven it much but I can already tell I'm gonna need new kidneys.

 

It'll soften and settle a bit. I don't even notice how stiff mine is now, just another drive

 

Thats what I'm hoping for. I'll get used to it I'm sure. It feels like driving a motor home right now!

 

No pictures?

 

Best ones I have ! Hahha

 

Nice
You have a lift in the garage? That's awesome! I had to do mine on the ground...
