Accounting error in my favor! $1500 to spend on toys

How often does this happen? It sounds like one of the 'good' community chest cards in Monopoly...

So here are some of the items i'm thinking about:

A new set of OME rear leafs so I can get rid of those darn blocks the PO put on the rear- $200
1.5" BJ Spacers so I can relax the t-bar and save my kidneys - $110
New shocks all around - Suggestions??

With winter coming, its got me thinking about recovery:
Warn Winch - $500 - http://www.winchdepot.com/PDT57613.aspx
Tow Strap/Recovery Gear - Suggestions?

Waiting to be installed or to show up:
Stock manual hubs
SS IFS Truss

Thoughts?

I wish! But I don't see a SAS happening for under $1500.

If I'm wrong and some one here wants to SAS my truck for $1500 then PM me..

The SAS Project is to much for me to tackle by myself right now (lack of time, space, tools, fabbing skill etc). But it's on the list..

Was it a bank's error? If so be leary about spending the money. They may figure it out and take it back. If not, enjoy it!

Being on the other side of the accounting error I would suggest you sit on that money because when they realize there mistake you will have to come up with it on demand.

My bank put $1916.00 of mine in a lady's account and she spent it , a week later I started getting bounced checks so I went to the bank and talked with the manager once they verified the mistake they replaced the money and bounced check fees and went after the lady who got it.

All the new shoes she bought she had to repay with the money in her account needless to say she was not happy and tried the you made the mistake you pay for it approach and got nowhere but to the repayment line.

Thanks for all the words of caution. Trust me, I'm not going to spend willy nilly, i'm going to make sure its not going anywhere before I spend huge chunks... I highly doubt they will attempt to get it back as their records show i'm paid, and they DID withdrawal it from my account - it just showed back up 2 days later for some reason. But even several days later it still shows up as paid on their website.. *shrug*

Worse case I can cover it, it just would not get me as far a long on paying off some debt. I'll get over that very quickly while i'm playing with all my new toys.

So any one have suggestions on shocks?

Cool Gold?

Buy Gold, our dollar's in a parabolic decline! 1/4 oz. or tenth oz. coins may be what you'll need for necessities by the time the Federal Reserve is done robbing us through devaluing our dollar, my $0.02...or 1 million pesos

you can do the complete SAS For under $1500 if you do it yourself.

I did!

Kit: $1k. Axle: $250 max.

That leaves $250 for gears as well.
