Jerry,
I figured it would be something like that. There are a couple of
truck parts stores in my hometown. I haven't been to them to
check if they had the part. I think I suffer from that e-bay
desease that compels one to buy foolishly, or in some cases let a
good deal fly by and then curse one self for not jumping on it.
thanks,

Armand
