Yep. It comes in separate boxes. They shipped my front bumper and rear bumper w/ tire carrier on different days.
UPS staggered all the stuff out over 3 days, enough so, that I couldn't install anything right away.

Unbelievable dude.
I've ordered a stubby rear bumper/tire carrier AND rock sliders from them. They both took a long time to get to me. But after installing the parts was I pissed? Not at all. LoD is top notch and damn near impossible to beat in my opinion, even if it does take them a long time to build the part that I ordered from them.
Take some Valium and watch a shitty TV show until the part gets in...

In general, I've seen a strange lengthening of delivery times from them over the last year, as well as curious price increases. Perhaps they have changed their logistics to conserve fuel. I just bought something from CA (not Jeep related) and it took 10 DAYS to get to VA from CA, despite costing 8.99 to ship (a small item). USPS Priority would have cost $5 and taken 2 days. Unfortunately, the eTailer didn't offer that option.
Whatever is going on, it definitely impacts decisions on who I buy from. I've found that buying from vendors that only offer UPS means you pay more. I bought a counter-top appliance a while ago that was offered for the same price from two different vendors, one shipped FedEX ground, the other UPS. The FedEx site offered free shipping; the UPS site asked for shipping charges of $36!!
So anyway, it may very well be that the type of parts LOD ships run into strange UPS logistics. Just saying...

LoD front and rear bumpers on order through Northridge 4X4, can hardly wait to get them and the new winch installed, maybe during Christmas or sooner if I can get some time off before then. Right now it looks like 7 / 12s per week until then.
