    EDIT: Twin sticks and knobs are on the way. Actually got a very quick response this time. Possibly his helper is back and things are back to normal.

    FJ case FINALLY arrived. Only took 6 weeks longer than it was supposed to have taken... unfortunately, the twin stick shifters were not in the box. Communication with the vender has been virtually non-existent.

    Here it is. One of these days I MIGHT even have all of the parts to actually install it.

    Why the tailgate replacement? And did you contact your"vendor"? What was the excuse?

    The tailgate is a tire carrier that swings out and has a big fold down table. I need my spare out of the bed.

    As far as the Vendor... only contact is email and he hardly responds. Twice I sent a message for him to call me. He said he would and never did.

    Finally sent a tracking number. Box arrived with no shifters or knobs.

    I know his helper got hurt and I understand. It's not really the waiting that bothers me. It's the lack of communication as to WHY I'm waiting.

    When you send someone $1300 and can't get a response it's pretty irritating. I almost filed a claim through PayPal.

    Where did you get your EBC rotors and pads? Any difference/improvements from stock?

    Finally got a trailer to put my RTT on and tote our camping gear. For those who didn't see this in the NJBS thread.

    Found this M1101on eBay and drove down to VA to pick it up.

    Camped in VA before heading home the next morning.

    I had a little time on my hands, and some Quickfists that I bought awhile back, so I finally made a spot to mount my High-Lift, axe, and shovel.
