Sourcing out shifter bushings Canada

nutpantz · 07-05-2012, 05:09 PM

I phoned my almost local ford dealer to order the shifter bushings for my 90 bronco 2. with the part numbers from the "how to" in hand, we quickly found 2 of the 3 part numbers with the shims no longer available.
then he told me the price. $ 20 for each bushing and$20 for each washer. So that's 80$ plus tax..
I know the prices are higher here in Canada but that is insane from the $30 quotes in the faq.
Should the dealer be kissing me before taking my money or have the prices gone up.
My local napa dealer could not find the bushings neither could Lordco and the only other parts place is the GM dealer. Ford is 30 miles away.
Anyone know some place that ships to/in Canada that has a better price?

EBay is your friend on this one.

ebay is my friend, but not a friend of my bronco 2 by the looks of it.
im sure they are out there somewhere..
i can buy a good used transmission for the price of the parts from ford..
and if i have to ill do that..

how new of a truck can i go and still have a direct swap? ranger and explorer untill 96 at least i think 2.9 and 4L engines should have the same 5 speed transmission right?
