Ordered an 3.70 with posi from Jim K.
the gasket showed up but not the unit.
I waited patiently about another week, then called.
it disappeared in Oakland.

UPS says it will do an investigation which will take 8 days ( which I read as months )

I guess some lowrider needed a new diff...

Have faith. The last time UPS lost something that heavy on me it took them almost 4 months to find it but it eventually showed up. It was returned to me in a badly beat up shipping container. I was the shipper in Chicago and also the receiver in Anaheim, Ca. By the time they found it I was back in Chicago again.

I'm sure Jim K will fix it and overnight the unit you are waiting for.

Update,
UPS found it.
It was out of it's container so Applied is going to give it a look over then send it back out.
Keep your fingers crossed!

That is not bad. Only 12 days. That is better than the couple of months that I forecast. UPS may be improving.
