Re: Rock Auto Closeout '71

My feelings are mixed on this. Parts for cheap is good, but closing these parts out is never good news

Agreed. Is it a sign of weak demand ?

Re: Rock Auto Closeout '71

With the serpentine belt drive kits from the aftermarket and donors from junkyard, v belts are kinda a thing of the past. Same with some of the brake parts. Now, u can order a conversion kit and update the system. Its change. Like most change we don't like it so much but we do however enjoy the benefits later on.

^^^ Wrong. Nothing has ever been wrong with v-belts. They have always done the job just fine and always will. Why change what doesn't need change? Modern people need to change to accept this timeless fact. I've never had a tensioner or idler pulley go bad on the original set-up

Re: Rock Auto Closeout '71

Just ordered a Pittman arm and a couple ball joints. Won't hurt to have them on the shelf for future use.
