Get the HDs if ordering the Ironman kit
Other than that it'll ride 100 times better than stock ( even brand new stock)

Before i order my lift, i gotta ask...Does anyone know if we get a discount for being members on here with any of the vendors (JBA?) Maybe a bundle deal?
NO not for JBA etc
Prices are pretty much set by the manufactures ( OME/Ironman etc)
Places like Rock Auto if you happen to use them I think they do

Does this list look accurate for everything i'll need?
You must be registered for see images attach
Indeed, minus rear pucks for bump stops as Jbergun stated. I just spent a total with shipping 660.00 for my OME/Blistein setup for just springs and shocks of course, but that's about 200.00 less. I think JBA's shipping prices are a little over the top IMO.

Ohhh wow, that's significantly cheaper! Yeah, i also thought the shipping costs were a bit inflated. I'll have to do some comparisons before i place an order.
Shipping prices inflated? I do know that when he ships if you do not say which company its by cheapest possible shipper. Now of course you or he can not compete with say Amazon that ships 10,000 items a minute. Prices are pretty much set as far shipping for a small company

Take the same weight and dimensions for the package and see how much it cost to ship the item from JBA to you. You would be surprised. Fedex and UPS has went crazy with their prices. But lets also not forget to calculate in the dimensional weight too.......thats where it gets ya.

Yeah, i totally understand. Normally i'll take a higher shipping rate to purchase from smaller business (a small business owner myself). Just weighing out my options first, being as this is a rather large purchase.
Try shipping a tire anymore
I had two used 265-70-16s I sold, guy said he would pay shipping no matter the cost
When cheapest was 97 each to ship he quickly wanted his money back

Fyi, Greyhound bus does package shipping. I once bought a pair of car seats off ebay, seller shipped them thru Greyhound. Cost was way cheaper than conventional shippers (UPS, FedEx, etc).
You do have to drop off/pickup at the bus terminal, which is fine as long as you have one near you.

I tried Greyhound once, they have some big gorilla baggage handlers I do believe :happy175::happy175:
