Hi, dont quite follow you on this? What do you mean by US address in the UK? Also as DON said, I am in Northern Ireland which is classed as being part of the UK, so sending to N.Ireland will be the same.
I was talking to Dale Sievwright of EvoSport who can supply me a new AFE intake for my 4.6 for $273.60 but there shipping cost's are $185!!

Hi Sudesh,

bit of a middleman on this one tonight. Bozo works for the US Government and is stationed in the UK. As such he can use the US Military postal system which will only charge the same as posting to a US address. Hope that makes sense.

By the way Sudesh, what is an AFE intake and is it only good for the petrol models?

Don

Sudesh 12-12-2006 01:14 PM

OH OK!!! Thats makes sense now. So this could be the best way around getting the AFE over to me then. I would have to get a zip code so I could get Dale Sievwright of EvoSport to cost shipping to Bozo.

:rofl: Sorry for not explaining..Thanks Don! Sudesh, just ask your guy if he ships to "APO" addresses. Some companies get a bit funny since they HAVE to use USPS to ship to me...Most don't though...Also, as I said before, I'm making myself scarce on the 18th, and Ill be back in a couple weeks...So feel free to ship it, I just wont be able to forward it to you 'til after the new year...

Oh yeah..Zip is 09464...

Sudesh 12-12-2006 03:19 PM

No problem! I'm not expecting anything until after the New Year now anyway as things will be a bit hectic. But I will inquire with EvoSport on shipping to an APO address. Thank you for your help on this also.
Don an AFE intake is a replacement air filter system, for your stock item. I'm not sure if they do any for a Diesel X?

bozo 12-12-2006 03:29 PM

Oh yeah, Im not sure how big it is, but there are restrictions on over-sized items. But your guy will know if it is too big to go USPS or not...

Sudesh 12-12-2006 03:31 PM

It weighs 13pounds, box size is 19 X 9 X 11" got this spec from AFE themselves.

bozo 12-12-2006 03:44 PM

Should be fine...:thumbup:

Sudesh 12-12-2006 03:49 PM

Ok I have emailed Evosport with the zip code ypu provided and told them it was an APO address so just waiting for a reply to see what they say. Many thanks again. :thumbup:
