    I ordered J59s from bilsteinlifts.com on Feb 9. Google Shopping showed "In Stock". After placing the order, I saw the message on the site that said "Estimated lead time as of Feb 2022 is 6 weeks." Okay, fine.

    Five weeks later I email asking for a status update. "No ETA yet, we'll let you know." Sure, everything's messed up right now.

    Today (11 weeks after ordering) I check in again. "Eta is 4-6 weeks."

    I know it's out of their control, but... ugh.

    The F150 I had at work was pretty nice and it was a beat up oil and gas truck. Wouldn’t mind having one in the future, but I wouldn’t mind a diesel either to pull stuff.

    If you're gonna go with aftermarket body panels, try to find CAPA certified ones. I know rockauto sells them. Fitment will be better. Otherwise it's hit or miss

    Oh if they had the room, that's exactly what I wanted them to do, it was the cheapest solution. But it was a cabinet in a powder coating shop, rented from a bay that was waaaay too small and the panel was in between the oven and the transformer :bananadead::bananadead: the ac unit would've burnt out even if they could've moved the panel closer to the door. So instead I but two fans at the bottom and ran flexible ducting 10ft to the roll up door, thankfully the transformer was wall mounted and not too close to the make shift duct that got laid. The 2 exhaust fans blew out into the oven doors

    Me no like. Not as bad as the one I saw on the highway though, must've been their "offroad" edition. Was shorter and had a weird looking backward facing snorkel on it
