Yes, parts from a large equipment company can be more expensive than when sourced from the actual manufacturer. However, if the bushing was a money maker A & I or Agparts would have it and maybe at a lower cost.

Consider this, on the grand world wide scale of things, the tractor is decades out of production and hurling towards obscure. ( No I'm not starting a brand war, I'll take in any car / tractor that comes across my driveway. ) The busing must be made, packaged, then stored in a warehouse and inserted in the catalog. All of this is a expense, warehousing a part for many years only adds to the cost of the bushing. The warehouse must be built, lighted, heated, secured someone has to pay for all of this.

Yes, there are some parts that slip through the cracks and get silly pricing, in that case I've called the company direct ( Miller welders for a control option ) and found if I ordered from the new welder side of the company the option was way less then if i ordered from the parts side of the company. Apparently each division sets it's own pricing and the parts side of the store made a error on pricing.

A few years ago I needed mower parts for my 1964 Cub Cadet Original. The current owner of CC is MTD, they still supported NEW ( not old stock sitting for years ) toothed pulleys, spindle shafts and blade mounts. The CC dealer said they were expensive but, the total was sub $ 200. Lets see, $ 200 divided by 40 years of use = $ 5 per year. I was happy the parts even existed and there was no way I'd be able to replicate the parts for $ 200 material and my time.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
