Almost everything I've been needing for the last few weeks Gm has had backordered. You might want to call and make sure it isn't otherwise you may be going without your car for a while. I waited 2.5 months for a 5th main gear, synchro, and spring, then finally gave up and bought a whole new transmission. GM is going down the crapper bad I think.
