Re: Asian crap parts to avoid

They do build to a price. On the other hand they can make a flat screen tv that sells for under 200 US that will last for years on end unless something external causes an issue.

When I can I buy old stock US made Chassis parts off Ebay. You have to have the parts number but i've picked up a number of things from vendors who buy pallet loads of parts and sell them at low buy it now prices.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
