    PM me. I hate the tax man on any continent. Would you have them delivered to me then I would have them shipped to you by FedEx or something? Doesn't seem too hard and I'd like to help a fellow Jeeper on another continent!

    I'd appreciate that a lot fhoele.

    They create all this fuss over them missing out on $50 worth of sales tax when we buy from an overseas supplier.

    I will message you later today when I get back from work.

    Cheers

    No problem. It's deer hunting season here in Pennsylvania, so I won't have service at camp later, but I will check my messages at the end of tomorrow when I get home. I guess that would be your morning. Lol
    My name is Frank Hoehle by the way.

    Message sent Frank.
    Thanks.

    An example of why I am inclined to get items from the US rather than local.

    We have limited options and I reckon we get ripped off.

    Say I want a plain old rubber shifter boot for the gearshift.

    From rockauto in America $5.62 US dollars
    From Jeepcity a local spare parts firm in Australia $78 Aus dollars = to $52.84 US dollars

    Jeep CJ5 CJ6 CJ Shifter boot by Crown Automotive J0948185- New - Jeep City

    Tell me that is not utter bull ****e.

    Be sure to remember that the next time you vote:D

    Sounds like we need to start our own import/export business!

    Might be a good idea actually.

    I won't be the only one in this situation.
