I went off on the guy but he said the package was all fucked up before he got it. and what a ******* circus it was trying to deal with DHL at first they didnt even want to to take responsibility but after much bitching out and threatening them with lawyers they budged so I had to hold onto my trans for 2weeks before they sent their insurance inspectors over then I was finally able to ship it back to texas VIA FED EX where 6speed checked it all out and had to replace some solenoids and weld some cracks in the case and shipped it back VIA FED EX all courtesy of dhl. DHL YOU SUCK!
and 6speed inc rocks! they def helped out alot

I shipped a set of heads and a cam through dhl and the guy got the heads but not the cam and like a dummy I only insured it for $200. But I got my money through the shipping store I used and they waited for the money from dhl. I wasn't out very much, but the guy really wanted the cam. It was a g5x3 copy.

I don't really want to use them again, but for the price, it's hard to beat. I just insure it for every penny the part is worth.

I found out not to use dhl from two experiances, 1. dhl van ran into back of friends 24 foot offshore boat and lmost put it in the back of the truck, and 2. when a driver smoked the brakes stopping, then burning out in reverse, slamming the brakes, the spun out pulling into neighbor's driveway across street. needless to say, neither my dad nor I could believe what we just saw.
