i hate waiting for parts! aargh!

especially when you order a lot from one company and you get a huge box 5 days later and you realize certain items are still on back order.

yeah... or when you don't have all the money to order all the parts...

or enough to either buy the big parts (transmission) OR all the supporting hardware (axles, fluid, TO bearing, clutch fork, pivot ball, etc...)

he said he took it to UPS and they packaged it... and the packaging was indeed crappy... it looks as though it happened during shipping... like they dropped it into the truck or off the truck...
