Hey everyone! So my 1994 E250 project van is coming along nicely. She has a 5.8L with only 83k miles.
I am the kind of guy that takes full advantage of the salvage yards when I go, and buy stuff that I think I may need in the future. I have saved so much money doing this with previous vehicles. Can someone compile a quick list of things I should grab while I'm there? I'm looking for things that would normally wear out. I have a small list of things I need below:
1. Window Regulators
2. AC Compressor
3. Door lock actuators
4. And..?

 

I have seen people on this forum having trouble finding air cleaner/breather parts, molded vacuum hoses, maybe any sensors that are easy to get to.

 

I had the middle passenger and rear door handles ( really the cables) break around 200K. You can find the cables only online.

My heater control unit came unglued (it is in 2 parts). Went to the junkyard expecting a battle to get in the dashboards, and the instrument panel must be a high value item. All of them were gone from 6 vans. It made getting the heater control real easy!
