There's a parts place that sells a bunch of new old stock that's clearing their shelves out Ufixitautoparts they have some steal prices on parts right now, I picked up a rebuilt ac compressor, a set of carbon metallic front brake pads and a handful of allignment bushings for $89 shipped.
I noticed they had new injection pump timing gears for about $16 and a bunch of other stuff, and they're also running a "Parts by the pound" sale, where the stuff in that catagory is going for a buck a pound, the catch, most of it has no applications listed, so you really have to know what you're looking for or spend a lot of time cross referencing part numbers, But I seriously stocked my shop up with bulk AC hose , fittings and crimp collars, along with a bunch of other goodies for half of nothing.

I have no connection with those folks, but I have been buying parts from them for a few years now. Always good stuff, but even on the listings with applications,it doesn't hurt to double check the part numbers.

The "Parts by the Pound" sale reminded me of something....
I used to regularly attend both the Carlilse Car events, as well as the AACA Fall Meet and flea market at Hershey ( Coming soon!). Some years ago there was a vendor with LARGE signs that said, " EVERYTHING $1". I was always a sucker for that and spent considerable time browsing the inventory. While browsing, I would hear someone come in, pick up a part, and ask, " How much?" To which the vendor always answered, "$1". It got to be so comical, I would stay just to watch as person after person asked, " How much?"

Well,I bought them out of Brake pads.....Only thing I could find they had for my stable.....but I guess 80 bucks for 11 sets is ok with me.....I think that is a life time supply.......since I won't ever wear out a set having the truck sitting in a kudzu field for all of eternity......

Maybe if you put all those new brakes in the bed, you can shame it into finding it's own way out of the weeds :rotflmao :rotflmao :rotflmao

If you do a mind numbing search through their inventory, you will find more stuff that fits, but it doesn't come up in an application search.
Thats how i found an AC compressor to fit, I had to dig through all of them and found one for a Taurus that is identical to mine ( had to go through a bunch to find one with the outlets and plug clocked correctly and the right pulley )
