Remember many years ago (many many) I needed a U joint for my Studebaker. Parts guy (who was a friend fortunately) looked it up and told me $32.00. I about fell over! That was a ridiculous price at that time! He helped me get my chin off the counter and then said, "Now if you ask me for one for a 19?? Ford Fairlane it'll only cost you $6.00. Same part number, same piece." Seems that was one way to get more money out of supposedly harder to find parts. Sure glad he was my friend! Taught me a lesson though, check for alternatives before you shell out the big bucks.
