Thanks...Funny because just two days ago i ordered a back windshield wiper arm from rockauto. I didnt even think about looking for the spacer throttle body elbow. I did check with my local ford dealer and the parts guy said he could get the part in. After i told him that if its over priced i would go elsewhere, he stated come in and see if its the part i was looking for and he would work with the price. So tomorrow I will see if the dealer has what i need and the price is right. If not i will get it from rockauto.

Thanks again

 

I'll be curious to hear how you come out with the Ford dealer parts guy. I never heard of anyone negotiating with the parts department before, but what the heck......why not. If you have success I am definitely going to try it in the future.

Good luck!

 

Well, got the spcr throttle body and all four gaskets and hose with new pcv valve...all for $180.00 from local ford dealer. I know the spcr alone from the dealer retailed for about $200.00 plus tax.

 

That sounds like a real nice deal. I am definitely going to consider negotiating at the steelership my next time around.

Best of luck with the fix!

 

Don't "negotiate" too hard on that wholesale parts dealer - we want him to stay around . . .
