do they carry that in the store in RI or just online?

$40 is a decent price.

That's got to be a store price. That's where we got ours. And if I remember correctly, it was only 28 bucks!

Ok, I was wrong in the price, it is actually $35.99 so even better.  Here is the link if it works for thier " Rolling back prices sale."  Page 11.

Specs:

This is only available at this price in the store and expires Jan 26.  Beware that it is hard to go to HF w/o spending more then you wanted, I can't walk out of there for less then a $100.  I just see too much stuff I want. ;D

Brian -

Hey did you call last night, asking if I would piece out my Hi-Lift jack from my Jeep?

I got a message on voicemail, but it's garbled lol. All I caught was "from JT4x4" and "wanting to know if you would sell the Hi-Lift by itself"? Saw this thread and thought maybe it was you?

If it WAS you I am sorry :( LOL! I don't know if Inga's gonna sell, and if she doesn't I would rather have all of the parts still ON her in case I am keep driving her...Sorry hun!

IF for some reason she sells, and the buyer doesn't want any of that stuff (if I have to lower Jeep's price and take all the extra crap off)...I promise Brian's got first dibs for the Hi-Lift, and Jeremy's got first dibs on the winch line! ;)

LOL!

I got a phone call last night from Swaggart asking for your number.  He wanted to see if you would part out Inga, like the winch, hi lift, and other stuff.  I went ahead and told him no.

Why Spank you :) Not that the parts won't go to our guys first if the buyer (if it sells) doesn't want/need all the shit on it....but if the Jeep doesn't sell, I am keeping her, and fully loaded still.
