Couldn't they ship the brace separately? You may have to pay separate S&H but if its worth it to you I'd ask
I just called them again and there was another problem with the front braces, they where cut wrong so I asked them to please ship me the U-bolt flip and shock tabs seperatly. He said he could still get them out today if he hurries so I might stil be able to get them this week.
Edit: and just like that I have an email saying my order has shipped.
Also since I am sick I decided to try and make myself feel better by ordering more parts, I have a 4crawler Ultimate 2" BL with heavy duty hardware and 2" motor mount spacers on the way. They said it could be up to 5 weeks before they ship due to a shop backlog! Note on 4crawlers site says "if you have a problem waiting that long then wait untill we catch up before placing your order"
