Good place for parts?

[JTH1972]

So where do guys normally go for your parts?
Any good places online?
US ones that deliver to Canada without getting raped at he border?

I found out that my truck is going to require more work than I thought, so the more bucks I can save, the better (without sacrificing too much in quality).

By far the best place locally, is Lordco......I used to work there for years

Just stay away from the grumpy guys.......

Of course, that depends on what you need. On major stuff, you could try to PM me..........I'm somewhat of a Ranger "freak" in town.......

Locally I go to Action Parts on McCurdy Rd. I find their prices a lot cheaper than Lordco's.

Well, there are some parts I'm trying to find...
Lefr fender is an "eventually" thing, and springs for the rear I'm looking for. I found a couple possible Explorer donors at Pick-a-part on the Westside, but they have the bodies on stands... on the springs! Big thing I could use right now is four steel rims to get some winter tires I have mounted on a spare set.

Brakes are the big project right now (as you've seen in my other thread) and working on the hiccup in the motor. I was having problems again the other night, but i got to somehow pull the codes first.

Do you by chance know a volunteer fighterfighter named Cody?

The name rings a bell, but i'm not sure.....Does he know me???? It seems I can't go anywhere in this town without someone recognizing me........

And I agree......Action DOES have better prices (especially since I am no longer an employee at the "other" place)

I'm sure I have a few fenders laying around.......Wheels i'd have to take a look around.

And unfortunately, I just sold the only set of 4-dr Exploder leafs I had. I do have another set on a potential parts Explorer that I may strip when the weather warms up a bit.......

We should hook up sometime......

Bumpers! Need bumpers! Just plain one's will do. Figures on the springs... The guy I just bought my canopy from just sent a 86 Ranger to the wreckers a couple weeks before. I could have raided it for parts!

Hooking up sounds good, Maybe someone can give me insight on to what the truck may need that I'm missing. That's the only bad part about these older trucks. Too many amateures in it over time who "think" they know what they're doing!

 

[2ranger87]

Bumpers aren't a problem....and i have several Ranger rear springs available. Hell.....i've got more trucks/parts than my wife knows about (believe me, that's a good thing!)

I do plan on doing a Pick'N'Pull run this weekend just to see what's going on there (it's been a while). PM me if you're interested in meeting up......

Bump, any ideas for Atlantic Canada? So far the junkyard is the only place I can find parts. Looking for 4x4 type things. Push bars, winches, ect.
