well the other spare tranny is now just a tranny case . i could have it rebuilt but this spare trans was WAY cheaper than rebuilding the other trans with new gears, bearings, forks, shafts,and everything inside the trans, like my current tranny has............... better to have the spare tranny sitting in the garage than NOT have one

UPS employees aren't allowed to lift over 70 pounds alone...union rules. They'd possibly get in trouble if there weren't 2 people delivering it, and they only run with 2 people per truck during the Christmas season.
Of course, that is my favorite rule to break, and my new supervisor doesn't really care.
