Best place for parts?

Hey guys, been awhile since I've been on. My truck hasn't been on the road since last November or so. I was starting a disc brake upgrade and had bought a front end to do the swap, well one of the spindles was bad and I haven't progressed from there. Now I'm looking either to buy a late model 70's truck, or find a new spindle. I'm just wondering where you folks go to get parts, pick-n-pull is kinda dry. Any advice? Anyone selling anything I could use?

Dang! That's a lot better than the one in Rancho Cordova! Problem is, I need to get a spindle and thats not something that comes easy from there! I could take apart the suspension and take the arm (control arm? or radius arm?) that has the King Pin in it....but they said that would cost me about $75, which is the price of just the spindle from another place without all the hard work of pounding on a King Pin. Then I start figuring I could just get a cheap non-running 70's truck and swap sheet metal.....I'm on the fence here and need to do something about it.
