Due to forum rules, this poll must remain open for 10 days which brings us to 8/21. Since we've already had enough responses, you will have 7 days to place your order with Hellwig (8/22 - 8/29). You should then receive the items within 3-7 days after that (my estimate). Could you have it delivered to a friend and pick it up from them when you return? Just a thought.

I finally figured UPS' website out...I think. Hellwig is located between Fresno and Bakersfield, CA. Their zip code is 93292. If I am doing this correctly, Los Angeles is considered Zone 2 and the shipping cost will be $9.98. Their is no where on their charts that indicate an additional charge for oversized items, which the bar will be. So it may be slightly more than that. You can look up your zone here under the ground column based on the first three digits of your zip code and then check the rate here based on your zone and the shipping weight of 36 lbs. The size of the package is 46x29x3 inches. When you enter this info directly into their cost estimator, they list all of the air freights but not the ground rate . Worst case (excluding AK and HI) is $41 shipping to New York. She was going to give me a cost that included shipping, but realized she would be screwing over the Californians and benefitting the east coast so she left shipping out of the price.

Nancy said that Hellwig looked into making a quick disconnect set but then went to SEMA and found that there are many other companies that offer this product. Apparently they had come up with a design and she is checking to see if they would be willing to make some and sell them to those who want them. Overall, they decided not to offer them directly since the market is saturated with quick disconnect products. She is also going to look up a few companies that do make them and that will fit the Tundra kit and I will relay the contact information. So please hold on while she gets me the details. I haven't read these other threads but she definitely believes that they are out there if you guys have been having a hard time locating them.

So many questions ! Keep them coming and I will do my best to provide timely answers.
