The title pretty much says it all I was just curious as to how everybody deals with the wait. I personally use the time to shop for more parts and rehearse my excuses for why I'm justified in saying I NEED them. Also if you want to post the longest you've waited for a part that would be interesting too. Should be entertaining...

I like the original poster, do research for more parts
and look for a second job so i can get more.
my cut off date this year for more parts other than breakage is July 1
so for now i'm pretty much done
only thing i can foresee is a TeraFlex steering stabilizer. and that is it.
mine is just starting to leak from the big dent i put in it a year ago.

I go to work to earn money to pay for the parts. That, and I watch the UPS notifications so that I can get them before my wife realizes I got more toys! The element doors showing up on Monday are the first thing I have ordered with my wife's blessing... including the JK!
