I got a chance this morning to look at the Parts Depot site. You can look up parts directly from the site. No prices or ordering, though. That you still have to do through your local dealership. To search, click on the link on their home page that says, "Click Here To Check Inventory Or Place & Order". When the new window opens, click on Visitor Login, select the product line you are searching for, & type away. It does pay to push the cross-referecne button. I've found quite a few parts that cross to a new number & a bunch that cross back to an old number.
I was lost on that site for a good hour or so this morning. I was searching for parts to repair my IH truck. I couldn't believe there were more parts for my truck, up there, than I've ever found for all of my farm machinery. I searched every nut, bolt & spring for the brakes on my truck & came up with about 65% of everything listed in the catalog. I think I might know the reasoning behind this, $209.93 for A (1) brake band. I thought I was gonna have the big one & saw Elizabeth smilin' down upon me! I guess I was reminded why those parts are still sitting there. That & they didn't sell too many of the model of truck I have, to my knowledge. If they did, they melted away around here in a Wisconsin winter or three.
I have to go get a bit of discing done before dinner, so I'm off. If you get a minute, I'd like to see what you've been up to on the Swiss Army W-400.
Take Care,
Mike
