Tried ordering a pair of front fender liners, rear driverside lateral arm and new oil dipstick from Tasca yesterday.  Total was about $150.  Then shipping was $250?  Huh?  Yeah probably not.  Called them and boy their hold music is by far the worst I think I've ever heard..........Ive heard it before but I really wanted to order this stuff....so left a call back number twice...no call...waited on hold twice upwards of 5 min...that music had me ready to stab someone.

I'm going to try to place a new order...see if they still want to charge me 250 for shipping.....so stupid!

Rockauto to the rescue.  Got everything except the lateral arm.  The inner fender liners are cheaper and oil dipstick with rockauto so I also ordered some sp542 plugs.  Then ordered the lateral arm only from Tasca which was $12 shipping.

Bulk shipping is expensive from the dealership.  But different dealerships vary greatly in fees.  Check out autonation of white bear lake and lakeland ford.

Try getting a driveshaft lol.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

People are hoarding SP542s like doomsday preppers. 
2013 Lincoln MKS ecoboost, 70,000 miles.  3 bar map 93 tune (E30 in the future) by both AJP Turbo and Ortiz Performance.  PPE catted down pipes, EPP dual CAI (not yet installed so K&N drop in), .026 gapped SP542, 170 degree thermostat, Dynomax axlebacks, and Power Stop Z23 pads and rotors.
