    I’ve used Fedex and Greyhound, have to cut cardboard rounds for each side, bubble wrap between cardboard and the face then shrink wrapped.

    Had a set of JKU 18s with 32s on them shipped for right around 200. Greyhound was prepaid by the buyer but The guy in Utah said it was the cheapest way to get VW 18s with tires from Boston

    Hey me too!

    Damn fricken ham Radios.

    But yes, maybe that'll what I'll end up running an I line breaker off the battery, fuse panel, and go from there. The only real issue is to run the switch leads for the few switching devices I have.

    Would there be any issue re-using coilovers from a roll-over vehicle?
    I want to pull the bilstein 6112s from my 4runner to my new 1st gen before I settle with insurance. I would plan on replacing the top hat because potentially the three top hat studs could have been slightly bent or stressed. I imagine the body of the shock and coil should still be good.

    I've got the coax running through the weather stripping. One is going right through the roof. The other will probably get mounted to the prinsu rack and through the vents on the rear side of the cab into the back seat

    Are you doing dual antennas or two different radios?

    If I go to a HAM radio can I use another BAMF mount on the opposite side of my CB antenna? Is the hole the same size?

    How did it work with greyhound? Did you need to pick it up at a station?

    Short answer, yes. When it comes to that time we can talk. Reach out to me before you make any purchases. We can get you rigged up.

    Have you checked a local freight place? Like Old Dominion, or some other trucking company? I have local place that I have used a couple times shrink wrapping it to a pallet is pretty cost effective if you are not in a hurry to get it there.

    So it looks like greyhound should be nearly $300 cheaper to ship so thank you for recommending that. Gonna suck going to South Station to pick them up though

    Anyone commute from South Station to the north shore area?
