It mostly saddens me that people think that for $0.69, the USPS won't tear them out of the package, causing the customer to complain, email/call me asking where the parts are and why a tracking number wasn't included, and then when the tattered envelope shows up, they'll call and insist that I overnight them a replacement pair because "I should have packed them better"
Let me just say that every letter, for starters, has to bend around a 12" diameter pulley. If what youre sending cant be flexed like that, especially without stabbing through the envelope, then it shouldn't be sent in an envelope.
Having said that a small flat rate box is $5.95 and comes with $50 insurance and tracking...

+1 for not getting customer parts lost. Me personally wouldn't fault you for any of that, but I can understand your frustration if others do.
Also FWIW TSE has the cheapest prices for this part of anywhere I can find, including shipping. Sorry if my initial post came off negatively towards you.

I know we have a "random picture" thread and a "how to ramble on your domestic", but do we have a "hacked and ugly ****" thread that I havnt seen somewhere?

Maybe I'll switch to electric steering.
I'm excited to log EGTs something I need to learn more about.
Car goes up on jackstands soon, going to fab exhaust. Pull downpipe to weld it all up then pull the trans.

Ordered new rear wheel bearings to replace while the rear spindles are off the car. $22 each from rockauto for Timken.
Decided the front hub can wait. I have 4 working front hubs and will just pack a spare for now.
