I see reverse sets - gimme :bawl:

I've got quite a few inner drivers but I suspect yours were cheaper...

Yep, all that came back in luggage. Potentially I could have gotten it back with only 1 overage fee for an extra bag (purchased at the Biltema) - however the trans parts killed me on weight. Ended up getting 2 over the weight limit fees for bags. Oh well, all cost about as much as a single inner driver costs here in the US, so I paid it. The 8 headlights that all made it in-tact I think was pretty impressive!

The inner drivers are mostly "good used" with I think 6 there that are actually new, but the new ones are for 9000,s - and an odd one at that. passenger side, 90-92 I think? something like that. ANA had a lot of "good used" trans parts, I think the drivers came from their selection. I got a bunch of the pre 85 as well as the post... always good to have on hand. The reverse gears are the 89+ type, and are actually NEW, which is a real nice find.
Less brake more gas!

A green American Tourister was a big help.

We could have probably squezed a few tranny parts in with my stuff and gotten 1 of the 2 under weight.

Nice. We have a fish scale type load cell that we bring on vacations with us sometimes. It helps make sure you balance the weight between suitcases on the way home.
The kind of dirty that doesn't wash off :eyebrows:
