      I pay extra for 3 day shipping, instead of 5-8 day shipping, still takes 5 days to get here. I wrote pelican a nice little email, about how I pissed I was that I ordred stuff, paid twice the normal ground shipping rate, to get it here in 3 days, just to have it show up in 5. What the fuck.

            it better come with something extra. trident layers are always a nice bonus.

                  half shaft rebuilt, waiting on the rebuild kit to get back to the FEDEX building, as I some how missed it, in the 2 minutes I wen to the gas station to grab some Boston Creme' donuts.  4:30pm couldn't come soon enough! I'll have pictures up of rebuilding halfshaft CV joints.

                  CV joints are really easy to rebuild. time consuming, and messy as a mofo. But definitely do able. Hell I did it on the kitchen table. Just don't tell the old lady that! :)

                              That's my CV joint. I can't figure out how to get my new phone to be sync'd as a external hard drive on my computer so uploading pictures is gunna be a bitch but you get the point :)

                              Update, it's all in, and everything got thread locked, and tightened down to NGA Nm! :)
