Started out the week okay, then went to package a Getrag case to ship it out on Tuesday, slipped on some ice and dropped the case on the pavement and BROKE it! :shock:

Now I have a customer up in arms at me. It gets better.

Tuesday night, hanging out, trying to find a FSM for a guy, I find a site that claims to have it for FREE, got it downloaded and found out it was a very bad VIRUS, instead.
So much for no AV to speed up my "internet experience" from now on.

Been offline until about an hour or so ago, because of it.
Seems like dial-up slows them down, but DSL helps the things propagate.

You need good virus protection. I have had good luck with mcafee so far.

I use AVG, it seems to catch just about everything virus wise. I need something to catch the adware, spyware, malware, whatever that crap is.

And to top it all off, I still haven't gotten your money order. Hoping to do it tomorrow.

I haven't done MY part on that one, either, so it's not a big deal.

2 good things DID happen, the Road Runner on the hauler DID "fly" home and I picked up some more low mileage 1st gen parts to sell later on.

As far as the AV cracks, you can still get infections with a CONDOM!!! :roll:

I think I talked to the guy who you sold the Getrag case to over on Cummins Forum. He hadn't heard from you in a while, and posted about it. I gave him your number so he could talk to you. Everything working out?

I didn't see the topic there, I need to find it.
He called me yesterday and I explained it to him thouroughly and made it clear that I am searching down another.

Was it Philip's case? :shock:

Whats this???????? Philip wants a standard. :shock:

Are we starting a dirty rumor? :lol:

by **Mark Nixon** » Sun Jan 24, 2010 9:41 am

I don't have any good spare cases left. :cry:

I dropped and broke the one, as I mentioned earlier, and the other spare that I thought I had, it has a spun input bearing race.

I have a complete 4x4 one, and the 2wd one in the '93 E/C, but no way am I parting either out.

Man, I wanted to see that Ally in there! :cry:

I can't believe he's going with the same thing as everybody else. How common. :roll:
