Parts hard to get?

I need about $1000 worth of parts for my truck to get it running.

Ive tryed 2 sponsors on here that havnt gotten back to me , one guy on Ebay that sells only diesel parts , he hasnt answered me either.

I got a half assed price from a guy in Vancouver but I had to pry it out of him, he still hasnt gotten back to me about taxes or shipping?

I wouldnt be in business long if thats the best I could do about customer service.

02 F-350 needs a HPO , ICP, IPR and a GPR>

call these folks http://terminatorengineering.com/ ask for Joey, and he can set you up with a HPOP, IPR, and ICP . Ask for his modded stock Hpop. go to local big box auto store and order a Stancor gp109, for your GPR.

Thanks I talked to him last winter, Ill try him again.
I had a Stancor GPR on my 94 and it worked great.
I bought it online somewhere from a link someone here (you?) gave me?
Im looking for the link.

Here's a link for Stancor. I also think they have a 15 VDC unit.

Even Clay has a way in finding parts from his sources.

Another option is local. You can save with the sponsors, but you have to consider the total price. Ed and Clay are great guys, but you can't escape shipping costs. When I snapped a front spring, Ed was the lowest around, but to ship spring packs was not the most cost effective way to go. I went to a local Ford dealer (family owned and been around a long time) and talked to the parts guys. I told them that I had a laundry list of parts that I wanted and if they were willing to cut me a deal if I bought it all from them. Between my military affiliation and the fact that I wanted to buy a lot of stuff, they gave most of it to me for pretty much fleet pricing. I ended up saving a lot of $$$ and the dealership now has a regular customer. It was a win/win for both sides.

Just my .02
