I just installed Bilstein 4600's (the yellow & blue ones) on my truck and oh what a wonderful difference. Ended up getting them from shockwarehouse.com since like thejustin said, Amazon won't ship to AK any longer.
Yea I had the Rancho's in my cart all ready to buy from Amazon and then it comes up with the message saying they wont ship that particular item to Alaska.
We really have to bend over and grab our ankles when it comes to shipping stuff in Alaska. Not only are we unable to get ammo shipped here due to Hazmat/ORM-D (which makes the ammo shortage, particularly 22LR absolutely horrible here, but that's another topic...), most e-commerce stores will only ship 2 day air to here, not allowing us to pick USPS Priority or ground (which is indeed available to Anchorage).
When I was shopping around for my airbags, the shipping estimates I got ranged from 150-400 bucks....... JUST FOR SHIPPING! Luckily I was able to order it from Amazon and get free shipping on it. Same thing for my Reese Elite underbed rail kit and 5th wheel hitch I added after the fact to my F350. Etrailer wanted in excess of 1500-2000 dollars just for shipping (now I gather those are indeed two heavy items, but 2 grand for shipping?!?!), again, luckily Amazon shipped them to me for free. Amazon is really great for making purchases for us up here because the free shipping really helps, just hope they don't keep adding stuff to the list of items they won't ship to us in Alaska..
