Red Beard......shipped me my bad boy rebuild trans. He did a shrink wrap and even went the extra mile to have MBE aka Mail Boxes ETC, who is NOW a UPS agent to do the final pack. They used a single panel box and styro kernels.
It showed uop on time but had a dent in one side. I opened and took pics.....remember "I" was the subject of "HOW NOT TO SHIP" thread.....pulled it out and it looked fine. Took it up to my "914 garage" and then noticed that the trans rear mount was broken off....FUCK......asshole apes broke it AGAIN....... On my original claim.....6 weeks ago....I am STILL fighting those douche bags......made the mistake of ONLY claiming 300 insurance...... MORAL OF THIS STORY.......take pics, BEFORE and AFTER....or avoid these jerk offs completely.... When I was dealing with Crawford the Insurance Agents for UPS...they said that styro kerenels for a 70+ lbs product was inadequate..... FUCK UPS |

I have a "spare" tail cover, so that will go out on Monday. Actually, MBE is now "THE UPS STORE", so there is no question who packed this thing.
My preference for shipping is Forward Air, strapped to a pallet, but the closest Terminal to SB is LAX. If I had crated the tranny, it would have weighed too much for UPS. Fortunately, I insured the tranny for $3000. It had a brand new LSD, H gear, an aluminium intermediate plate and my labor to go through this unit and make it near perfect. If it were lost, it would take at least $3000 to make another one. Yep, now I have to go through the trouble of filing a claim for this. No more UPS for me.
