Sadly these days Amazon will probably stand behind it better than any chain parts store- Amazon pretty much has a no questions asked return or exchange policy while the managers at corporate chain parts stores get bigger bonuses the lower their return rate.
If you can get a locally owned...
I have Jeep parts that can come if needed, not bringing unless sold:
Dana 41 axles, rear for WWII jeeps. One from under a GPW one from under an MB $125 each- complete drum to drum
Dana 25 fronts, once complete drum to drum with all steering linkages $250 one with the steering linkages but...
It looks like someone just slathered red silicone gasket sealer on it. We generally used a silicone dielectric product like this.http://amzn.to/2cIZFj1
If anyone wants even more background on the contract process, here is the ruling when GL contested the award of the contract to IP.

Interesting to note that IP won the bid by just .25%
You can get the AC-Delco ones.
Link for front.
You can probably find a rear set that works too there, but I know that front set is listed as fitting the K30.
There is actually another reason stuff gets diverted to scrap, and it is borderline fraud.
I can't say for sure if it is still going on, but for a long time as a way to encourage "recycling" to make the government more eco friendly base commanders were told that any funds that came back from...
FYI, here is a copy of the IFB for the contract. While not the final contract, it tells you how it is structured and the terms http://www.dla.mil/Portals/104/Documents/DispositionServices/sales/cv4/DISP_CV4RMasterIFB92_151103.docx
GP pays an upfront fee for all property sent to them based on a...
Well, no there are not just two ways the contract could be structured.
In fact they can structure it where GP serves as an intermediary requiring they be cleared by TSC and requiring all secondary buyers from them also submit and get an EUC from TSC. They take possession of the items and sell...
Here is the deal.
Trucks sold to the government get a national security exemption from emissions, DOT requirements, crash tests and a bunch of other stuff. Those exemptions follow the truck for life even after sold to civilian users.
BAE can sell a truck to the military who can turn around and...
I know a lot of people whining have no clue how thing used to be before GL and GP where you had to travel to a live sale and bid, or else fax a bid in based on a text list of items with no condition description or photos.
If you didn't have the time and resources to do all that you were buying...
Yes actually that does give them the right, because the DLA contract stated that the SF-97 be branded Off Road use only, while the USMC contract stated that they would come with a "clear" SF-97, means exactly that is how they can be sold. The contracts with the government are exactly what allow...
I forgot all about that debacle.
But yeah, that is a good chunk of them I am sure.
Also I am sure a lot of them are people who bid blindly on trucks regardless of location, having not bothered to consider shipping costs or even investigate quotes. I see that a lot with new people trying to get...
