i dont know why i pay for air freight when it takes zzp over 24hrs to stick a TB in a box and send it out the door. we ordered it before noon our time on monday it left zzp after 4 our time yesterday. i might see it later today or tomorrow kevin. im not a happy camper. its in freaking new bruinswick waiting on "the power of attorney" i guess they didnt even complete the paper work.

i wont be buying too many zzp parts in the future. i most certainly wont be getting them to ship it by air anymore. what a waste of money.

That's why I try to stay away from them. The service is terrible most of the time. Regular shipping might have been just as fast or even buying it from a dealer

i checked the dealer, they had none in western canada and it was way more expensive. so i paid 130 dollars shipping on a 200 dollar part hoping to see it asap. never again. i rather get the normal shipping. it takes less time and cost a hell of alot less.

An eBay ad says it's also on 5.3L, 3.7L, 4.2L and 3.5L.

Guess it would be more common if you knew what vehicles had the 4.2 and 3.7

i usually wait for my package too. to me the problem lies with the amount we pay for shipping. they nail us to the wall for normal shipping, let alone when we pay for priority. maybe im expecting too much. when i pay for better service , i hope to get a quick response time. i know when our shop has something that needs to go priority it leaves the day its ordered.

look i have paid for normal shipping on packages from CED and received it within 4 working days. then again tom is awesome!
