some guy, member since 2001, 100% positive feedback. shipping form Michigan. I got an ups tracking # but it only says shipping info received.

 

I would try and contact ups first. Might be a mistake on their end.

 

well, when it says billing info received it means that ups dose not have the package in their possession. no updates were given on the location. it should have shipped the 29th and been here by the 6th. its from michigan to kansas not that far. ebay says to wait untill the 10th then i can file a claim. so i wont do anything untill then.

 

Well I had the same problem when I ordered my hub assembly it said the same thing and I checked it at 9am still said that then it showed up at 11am. Sometimes ups is just not on the ball. 7 days just for that is awhile My winch came from ca and it was here in 10days

 

yea they could have forgot to add it to their system or something. but i will wait and see.

 

Here's an idea I'm checking out - leave the front driveshaft out from about March to November (or whenever winter takes hold in your area). Improved gas mileage, less wear/tear... I'm checking the gas mileage though - tradeoff might not be worth it, especially if you like having 4x4 available. I just had the joints replaced in mine by a transmission shop (Rye Valley Gear in SW VA) and haven't re-installed it yet. Obviously this won't be a good option if you like to 4-wheel... But if you know when you'll be using 4x4 (or feel confident about taking your chances) then this might be a good option... I use my 4x4 about once a year for firewood and a couple times in the winter when the roads get messy so I'm thinking I'm going to leave mine out next summer and see how much my mileage improves. Very efficient right now - I'm sitting in Afghanistan and my truck's sitting in the driveway. Of course I have that 4bt in the garage to improve the mileage also... But who knows when I'll get around to installing that.
Good luck on getting your part though! Hopefully it's just a UPS screwup.

 

well still no part, i opened a case with ebay just now. now i have to wait another 7 days before i get my refund......blah

 

I have a similar noise coming from my front end.
I just checked the Axles, and didn't notice any play or wear in the CV-Boots.
I'm gonna check my drive shaft, hopefully that is not it... but if it is, does anyone know if the Drive shaft from other Engines will work? I have a 4.7 V8 4x4, and my local junkyard has none there... just 5.2's and 3.9's that i've seen.

 

still no contact from seller, i will be able to escalate my case tomorrow. then it gets reviewed by ebay then i get my money hopefully.

 

Thats weird coming a seller that has 100% feedback. You will get your money back though so dont worry.
