Thumbs down My sob story. Need some help.

So, just got home, about 45 minutes ago after hanging out with some buddies, to find ALL of my tools are gone, and the lock on my garage has been changed. I'm livid. I spoke with the apartment Manager, she told me that my now (ex)Girlfriend came in and dropped off of the keys, after loading up all of my tools into a U-haul. She's nowhere to be found. I didn't get a phone call, a letter nothing. My Rex is fine, still sitting exactly the same as it had been since last night (THANK GOD), and all of my parts are still safely nestled away in my storage unit outside the apartment to which I have the only key. The locksmith and police are here now, changing my house locks and filling out a report. This is ******* sweet.

Anyway, seeing as how I'm now out about $3500 worth of tools, boxes, and garage, I won't be able to install my diff, nor my S5 swap parts. Can ANYONE please do this install for me. I can pay you a little money, maybe $150 or so, and you can keep all of the extra parts that come off(s4 bumpers, and mouldings, s4 n/a diff) and I can also throw in my other n/a diff, and some swaybars(what I've been told are TII). Any help is greatly appreciated.

Also, please be on the lookout for a huge surplus of snap-on tools to hit craigslist. Full socket/ratchet/wrench set, a big red box, full pry bar set (green handle) tin snips, adjustable click type torque wrench, etc. Literally every drawer is full of tools. These parts are all about 2 months old, and since she's a little on the less intelligent side, she's likely to post them all at once. Thanks guys.

DO you have renters insurance? You may be able to file a claim if you get a police report.

Unfortunately, no renters insurance, never crossed my mind. Now I'll be getting it for sure when money loosens up. Anyone in that can help me with the diff and bumpers? I need to get rid of all my extra ****.

It's not that I don't know how. It's that I don't have the space/tools any longer, and soon not to have the time, as I'll be working 12s back to back to try and save up enough money to move, putting buying anymore parts on hold until summer probably. I'm just trying to get all my current parts on, and get rid of the excess in order to make the movie easier.

Don't you think the police would be able to track her down? I mean, if there is anyone that knows where she might be it is you, correct? Either way, sorry to hear. I had all my music gear stolen once. Got it back a few weeks later when the tweakers tried to pawn it and the pawn shop owner had our flier behind the counter. Called the cops and they showed up as the thieves were bringing the stuff into the shop.

@ 13bpower: I have no idea where she went or with who. None of our friends have heard from her. She straight up vanished into thin air. I hate to air my dirty laundry on a public forum, but basically, a few nights ago, we got into a huge argument. Long story short, I found out she was being unfaithful, I told her I needed some time to think, and in the meantime, one of us needed to stay somewhere else, so I could have some time to think. She left, and was supposedly staying at her cousins apartment down the road, I hadn't spoken to her since that night, this was on 2/23.Fast forward to yesterday, my buddy calls me up, and says he wants me to draw up some potential tattoo ideas, and have a few beers with some other friends. I go over there, and come home to that. I remember her having the keys because she needed to grab something out of storage, and I never thought much of it. Guess I'm paying for that mistake now. She's dumb, but not dumb enough to take all of my tools to any of our friends house, as they would call me immediately. My guess is she took off with whatever person she was being unfaithful with. **** it. Life sucks, **** happens, this gives me more motivation to get the 7 done after I move.

Edit:This is EXACTLY what my box looks like, only all the silver is painted gloss black, and not secondary top box.
