That's nice to know Gambles.

I used to buy nothing but MOOG parts from my local parts

store but they stopped carrying them. Explanation was that

MOOG moved production to a "cheap" place and they had so

many returned parts that they switched to a different supplier.

I think they sell TRW now but I've found that most of the time

since the switch it is actually cheaper for me to order them

from the dealer. Odd, I know, but that's the truth of it at my

small town dealership.

That only applies to certain parts of course. Ball joints, tie rod

ends, some electrical sensors, headlight and dimmer switches,

air conditioning parts, etc. It pays to call around.

Don't forget to ask about warranty.

One funny thing that happened was when I needed a headlight

assembly for a Neon, NAPA could get it for me for $xx and the

dealer could get it for about $20 less so I ordered it from the dealer.

When it came in, it was sealed in a NAPA box. And broken.

The dealership warrantied it and for the extra wait time, they

offered to install it at no charge even though I was just buying parts.

NAPA is directly across the street from them.
