    So how many people do we have on board so far? I'm still waiting on paypal to work for me, but I'll hopefully have my order in mid-week. Hopefully I'll get my A-series lights in by then so I can figure out how ill use them as turn signals.

    Nice. Any plans on how you're gonna paint it? Powder coat? I was thinking bed liner but I know that'll be a fortune.

    So I ordered a hybrid front and tire swing out rear around mid September. I think Billy said mine was practically done but was going to wait and pallet it with the rest of the Alaska stuff.

    Ben did you talk with Billy about this? Thought he said he had mentioned it.

    Do you guys mind if I put my stuff on the Alaska pallet?

    Well I think that means we'd save more on shipping with your bumper too so I don't see why it wouldn't come up on this pallet of stuff.

    Hey ben, so with five bumpers and a roof rack on this pallet of stuff do you have any idea what shipping is gonna look like? I'm assuming it'll be less then the 200 mentioned in the OP?

    Well for reference we shipped up 8 bumpers and it was a grand, total. That was with 8 bumpers, my leafs and winch and a set of sliders as well. This will be notably less weight so I'm gonna estimate around 700 total split between us. Does any of us have a trailer or am I gonna have to rent one again?

    I may be able to borrow the van from my work depending on when the crate arrives, but I wouldn't be able to store them if someone can't pick up their stuff right away. No promises though. They're pretty stingy with it.

    Crates normally come around noon on a wednesday or friday. Days will always be the same, time is the only variable.

    Thursdays don't work as it will be in Seward, but other days are more flexible. It'd most likely be available in the afternoons. I'll ask about it tomorrow.

    Oh good call. It's 14' long inside and almost 6' wide, but just less than 5' wide at the wheel wells. So that may not work.
