95 Ford Bronco 5.8L parts ?

Im getting some major work done to my bronco. I currently have a oil pan gasket and a rear main that need to be replaced. I was looking at the 1 piece oil pan gasket that bronco graveyard has. Is this a good oil pan gasket and where should I get the rear main gasket/seal from? I wasnt sure if there are certain gaskets or seals to stay away from or any companies that make crap. Also I plan on doin a new water pump & timing chain and which ones are good? And do you guys recomend anything else to get replaced while all this work is getting done. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I just got this truck and with 118 k, I plan on keeping it for a while.

I buy most my parts at Autozone, but that is just me. And I have had my Bronco less than a week, so I am not an authority on them. However, mine needs a rear main seal also, and I plan on getting it at Autozone for $18.36 Oil pan gaskets, I prefer the rubber (neoprene) instead of the cork, but again, that is a personal preference.

Cu around , depending on the parts that are the issue i tend to stay with motorcraft (if available).Auto zone, advance, napa are considered if parts are not available.Rock auto carries motorcraft parts , LMC ,national parts depot, and the dealer are also considered .

The Bronco Graveyard carries mostly quality stuff, you can also check with Parts Guy Ed, another sponsor, and Summit racing seems to carry good spares too.

I use rockauto.com unless I need the part that day. They have a good selection, cheap prices, and fast shipping. As far as other work that needs to be done. If you don't know when fluids (trans, rear diff. etc) were changed last I would have them done. Chances are like when I bought my Bronco it had never been done. I would then look into plugs, plug wires, dist. cap and rotor. Welcome

Thanks for all the replys, the prices seem to be pretty close. I just wanted to make sure that I get good quality parts and not some crap from china thats only going to last a few months.
