Apex charged me sales tax on the shipping charge....and shipping was more than double what the box actually cost to ship. Not happy.

State by state issue. In general yes, but it's pretty rare that a company does charge tax for shipping.

Semi related, I know one Vender appears to charge sales tax based on their cities tax rate which is well above my cities for shipped product. Not sure if that is how it's supposed to work? (think not)

An excellent question. I'd ask them direct but they never reply to me about any subject.

I figure I should give a review of the LBJ and their customer service. LBJ is built like a tank. The coating is thick and needed to be filed down for my lowers to fit well. Adjustment of the LBJ is a huge selling point for me. Adjustment are made easily on the bottom. Customer service for me was great. I called and no one picked up. Did not leave a message as I was going to email. Before I could finish the email I received a call back and answered all my questions. If I were to do it again I would not get the hardware. The bolts were to long and I wanted grade 8 bolts that I could count on.

I have just the steering arms on my car and just back from the alignment shop, first impression; do not think about looking at your phone at speed. The car will track where ever you are looking. Very lite and nimble at the wheel.

I did not drive my car with the stock configuration. I have the toe set at zero and the slow speed turning is acceptable. I would purchase them again. I had just refreshed the front end of my car and did not add the ball joints.
