I scored big last night!!!

Title says it all.

I happened to hop onto craigslist, and found an ad for a rear flip kit and c-notches for 50 bucks, claimed to be brand new. Didn't have any pictures though.

I immediately called the kid up and said "Would you take 40?" He says that at this point he would, so I got an address and went down there.

I get down there, and there's a Belltech box sitting in the garage by itself, unopened.

I cracked it open, and this is a brand new flip kit and c-notch from belltech, for 40 bucks. I paid him and booked!

It ain't often that you find a deal like that! The kid was saying that he wrecked that truck, so he had no use for the parts anymore, and they had been sitting in there forever, without any offers whatsoever.

Re: I scored big last night!!!

Thanks everyone... now hopefully if my spindles get here before this weekend I'll get to post up pictures of everything slammed. It's already got a two inch drop. It needs to be in the weeds though

You don't find a deal like that every year. Sounds like a 10 yr score to me.

Way to go!
