Repo vs OrigOriginal Booster Plating

Shipping Charges:

All charges are based on the weight and destination of your package.  Minimum charge is $8.00.  All parts are normally shipped via UPS.   The U.S. Post Office may be used when necessary.  Shipping charges are in addition to quoted plating prices.

 

Shipping Hints:

When packing brake boosters for shipping, the part that needs to be protected is the rod going to the brake pedal.  Bumping this rod sideways, may cause the rear hub to break.

Do Not remove front pushrod from your booster.  This is required in order to rebuild your booster. Double bag or double box small parts by color of plating to avoid mixing during shipping.   USE LOTS OF PACKING!!!  If in doubt, call first.

When packaging your parts for shipping, keep in mind that you may know what is in that bag of bolts, etc., and how it needs to be plated, but I do not.  With that in mind, please observe the following suggestions:

  1. Mark all large parts with type of plating needed.
  2. Box parts to be plated the same color separately within a larger box so that they can't mix in transit.  Zip lock bags may leak during transit.
  3. Use plenty of packing material to protect your parts and to keep them from damaging the box and possibly falling out.
  4. Remember to provide adequate insurance on your package enroute to me in case of damage or loss.
  5. The stiffer  the cardboard, the better the box.
  6. Always put a note inside the box with phone numbers so I may contact you upon it's arrival.
  7. Shipping via UPS may take from 1 to 7 days depending on your location.  Plan accordingly.
  8. If in doubt, call or email me.

Booster Packing:

See the photo below below which shows you the best way to keep from breaking the rear hub on your booster. Use zip ties, as pictured, to immobilize the rod between the brackets.
