I would have gone that route if I had the time to wait for them to come. If there is a next time (not on this car) I will go that route. How much were they from GMPD?

Bill, is the puller safe in your garage?

Pete, glad you got it done finally. For a while there, I thought you were trying to write an epic novel with the HB as the theme....

While the guys at Advance were doing everything they could to get us the right balancer.. it was frustrating...

But then..how many people walk in w/o the box for the balancer being returned.. plop it on the counter..take the new one out fo the box and say.. "SSSEEEEEEYAAAA" and walk back out the door. No paperwork..no waiting in line.. er..not even a return slip.

That'* one of many things I like about Advance over Auto Zone. They will accept returns without a box or reciept.

Glad to see it'* fixed, hopefully mine doesn't decide to take a crap.

I'm there so much.. I don't need to prepay special orders.. no worries on returns ever.. if I have a lifetime part.. I walk in and get another w/o having to worry about the core until later.
