That’s true but some things are not on their computers. The one thing I hate buying is combination U joints when swapping in a rear end from something else, especially when you don’t know what year the new rear is or if the drive shaft is original. I have never had anyone find this in the computer, and most guys nowdays won't pick up the book to look. If they do they can't figure out how to read it. I had one guy at autozone actually pull the book out, but was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to use it he wouldn't let me show him. Said I should just go someplace else. I hate dealing with the most of the guys at my local O’Reilly's but at least they will give me the book and let me find my own parts.
