Default Still Shoppin

If your gonna cruise the mall, might as well stop and shop. Shocks backorder came in, $56 each on sale, Cdn Tire, my current sensitrac fronts have been holding their own for last 2 years and 133K, not failed but time to refresh. A set of swaybar links, just busted one, from Napa, $57 pair, have idea and plan to fab quick disco link for top ends, will post that after holidays. Oh yes, important part, since I use a gift card from our last anniversary to help cover the shocks, picked up a bouquet of sunflowers for wife and taking trip to Picasso art museum in morning, also a cake for dogs birthday, dog doesn't eat cake but I do, she loved the happy bday song and a chewy stick, smiles and waggy tails all round.
Now should I put the shocks on tonight or if I take the wife for fine dining tomorrow, will she help in the shop later???

Same one I have. Been great so far... 1000ca 800cca and good reserve time. Powers the winch and lights with no issues. Well worth the minor trimming I had to do to the tray to fit the bigger battery.
