Thanks for the site Lu. I just checked it out and will add up the price of the parts. I may just call them for a price quote with shipping. The prices you got localy were they with a mechanic's discount and with tax? Some times shipping can make an attractive deal add up to what you would pay locally for somthing. Since I don't pay tax and get a mechanic's discount if the total is close between the 2 places i'll buy everything at my local auto parts store. These guys have gone out of there way to get me parts for my AMC's for 19 years and I always try to support places that go the extra mile for me.
