I don't think they do Sat. unless you get overnight.

You can do that inbetween comercials. only two bolts and you have to jack the car up by the rearend and that's it.

Yeah, UPS doesn't work on Saturdays (around here atleast). Fed-Ex has been much better than UPS latley and a whole lot cheaper. Plus home delivey works Tue-Sat which is kind of nice since I don't function on Mondays.
