Re: best parts supplier

Keep in mind that the demand for these truck parts isn't great enough to provide for multiple assembly lines shooting out truck parts. Most parts are manufactured by one or two manufacturers, and then shipped to all of the suppliers.
That being said, I would pick a board member that is somewhat close to you. That way you could drive to pick up big parts, and if you ever have a problem you have someone you can speak to face to face.
You may want to try Tim Christian at Christian's Classics. He's in TN, and is probably only three or four hours from you.

Re: best parts supplier

ipaintem,I know Tim will be in Raliegh in Nov. at the Fairgrounds show.If you give him a shout he will probably bring the stuff you need and save you a lot of shipping$$$/travel.He was in Charlotte this past weekend at the Food Lion Auto Fair at Lowes Motor Speedway,always a great place for parts and such.

the above comments are a ...I was thinking the same thing. Also Tim knows these trucks, works on these trucks, and owns these trucks. Keep us updated with your projects.
