Just a quick note to tidy this up for anyone reading in the future.
We had to come to ba to sort this, the person who's name is on the airways bill needs to visit customs, and this makes it a lot smoother. Javcap got us hooked up with a good agent in the airport, and we went there to get the parts. UPS had told is it would take them 15 days to process the package through customs, but by going there ourselves, with javcap's contact, we got the package processed and out in a few hours, at less than half the cost UPS had quoted us.
Many thanks to everyone who helped us out especially Sandra at Dakar motors.
All that's left is a few more  in ba, and then another 25 hr bus ride back to our truck in esquel.
Merv and Sarah.
