Ok im sick and tired of waiting on damn parts to come in the mail....and these damn mail companies charge way to much for next day delivery.

Who else is tired of this bs....it doesnt take four days to go from Cali to miami, or 3 days or more for something to go from nashville to miami.

I have been ordering parts for the past couple weeks and I only got a couple more to go and its really gettin under my skin, glad they got shipped on time or I would be going postal, and once I get the parts im going to have to wait till the weekend to start workin on them

sorry needed to VENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

ha ha I hear ya man. I will watch tracking on **** I buy and I'm like WTF it don't take a day to get from here to there it's only a half hour away.

I had ordered a new air filter off ebay. I emailed the guy before he sent it to double check the size (there were 3 different sizes listed in his listing). He told me it was what I wanted. I get it in the mail and it's like an 11x5 filter. I emailed him back and said dude this ain't right. He's letting me send it back so I can't complain too much, I'll be out the shipping cost probably to send it back but at least I'm getting most of the money back. Today I ordered another one from a website got a 14x3 1/2 Kool Blue. Can't wait to get it. Maybe my truck will run better being able to breath

Well I ordered and recieved the following
1. Ball joints, tie-rod ends, idler arm, pitman arm....cheap brand but only looking to last maybe 30k
2. control arm bushing...energy suspension in red
3. spacers...need to run them with me rims

Ordered and still waiting
1. A billet emblem for my grille....had ordered one and the guy canceled due to stock issues, found someone else but had to wait till bidding ended beat out somebody with 5 secs to go
2. shocks...finally the right size
3. Im not telling yet if you cant figure it out you will see the pics next week when they show up.

The only good thing is I ship them to work so there is always someone there to sign for them so no waiting any extra except on saturdays, those deliveries **** me off to no end

and Im the one that checks the tracking number 5 times a day and gets mad becuase they update like 5 hours after it has arrived somewhere

ps. that is gonna look sweet under the hood, you must take pics

Hell yeah, I always look for a color theme in a vehicle and yours is hard to miss, hopefully you have no problems and it arrives quickly to your door, just dont wear out the tracker button

Dude I know your on the mafia fb page but are you a friend of mine on fb? or have aim or something?

Ha ha yeah the truck is blue, my 94 GT was (will be again someday most likely) the high heat lime green like color, and the 96 I hope to make purple

The 96 as of right now. i want to paint the CAI the body color to match, and I was thinking if I keep the stock upper intake polishing it and painting the horse to match. I haven't really given it much thought yet. Haven't had it long enough to let my mind go wild (it's dirty)

Your complaining about 3-4 days? I waited 2 weeks for a set of ball joints! But they were worth it, they are the best.
