I agree with what you guys are saying here. Sometimes you can get a complete truck as a donor having the part you need in exchange for the price of the actual parts some of these companies are selling. For example: My 91 burb has been upgraded from 1/2 ton springs to 1 ton springs. I called 20 places a few years ago and they all wanted in the neighborhood of 600 to 700 bones. My friend got a wrecked ambulance that I went in on for 200 bucks and I got my springs, 454 computer and harness, and the anti-lock braking system.
