    I'm east of Scranton.

    I am looking for any overlooks where I could get some pics of the city lights. If any one wants to throw that out there, all I need is a road name basically.

    There is an overlook on 307 in Scranton. Right down from lake Scranton. Haven't been there in awhile, might be ghettoed up by now.

    Ok thanks, I'll check it out on one of my drives with the wife. We take a lot of drives just to check out different areas and find cool stuff.

    Yep. I used to go "parking" there with my ex-girlfriend 20+ years ago. Haven't stopped there lately though.

    Coming North on Route 115 gives you some great views of the southern Wyoming Valley

    The same with Either Interstate 81 or Route 309

    :frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty: UPS came to my house on Thursday WITH my skids and did not leave them on my front steps, posted a note on my door stating must sign for delivery. Will attempt again on Friday. No way I could take time off from work on such short notice nor find anyone to hang out for them to show up. Read back of notice for options on delivery, 3 options I pick 2nd. Reads, sign here for driver to leave packages withuot signature. Come home Friday night, no skids :facepalm:. Carol tells me they left another note on the door for you next to the first note they left. "MUST SIGN FOR PACKAGES". WTF!!!!! Also marked on 2nd note "last attempt". Go on UPS.com. :angrygirl::angrygirl::annoyed::annoyed: That said another attempt will be made on Monday, so I guess Ill take a chance and go in work late hoping for a delivery. I'm pretty sure I'm done with ordering from companies from the west coast, it took way too long for them to be made and the delivery process is a real PITA. I was going to order a DIFF diaper from them but FT. Anyone know of a local company making diff skids?

    Budbuilt & Mobtown are an east coast solution for skids. Not that it matters now. :(
    (Personally not sold on the mobtown skid design yet. Need to hit some trails w/ Joe & see)
    Jerrys pricing on the diff skid is way up there now unfortunately. Totally cost prohibitive to purchase. +$500 shipped for just that piece is just way too high. I love mine but I paid a lot less.
    My recommendation would be a bostec one not an RCI. I saw another member with an RCI one have it shift while wheeling and start rubbing the diff yoke.
    Bostec need a little massaging to fit but are very stout and will not budge.
    Sorry you've got brown Santa issues. :(

    You need to look at the vendors shipping policy some always have a signature required .

    I am lucky I can get things shipped to work

    Sometimes if the regular driver is on vacation things get messed up as well

    I've been shipping stuff to my office, there's always somebody around to sign for stuff. The best delivery was my Dillion reloader, our receptionist wanted to know what was in the box. So I told her it was a press that I could use to make my own ammunition, she said "I signed for what!?"

    ^^^^ this because brown drivers don't care enough to read the tag left on door. And if you don't get your package he still gets paid.
