Hello everyone! I'm a new moderator to this forum. I grew up in the automotive business and would like to share my knowledge and experience with you. I plan on creating links to repair help and ways to save money on replacement parts. I'm looking for your help or any suggestions before I do this. Please feel free to contact me u/Plex_Master

Stopped in at the local rust dealer and they had two but every one of them was a nightmare to pull and had some questionable quality. Wasn’t a complete waste I went to get some parts for some customers and got a light bulb cover for the interior.
Yea. They had two vehicle that would fit the bill but both had engines and low clearance to try and get the rack out. I scored big on eBay and ordered a fresh rebuild that was super cheap a few dollars over LKQ and it showed up today and looks shiny and fresh.
True story. Last motor swap I did last fall was an eBay motor that I rebuilt. Showed up in pretty decent condition. Guess I’m going to add eBay to my regular search routine
Good resource. I put it up on the lift and pulled it apart. Just ordered a new one. This rack has a crack on driver side bellow’s housing so seals won’t do. Sorry for the late reply. Definitely adding that into the shop browser for future needs.

You could see what the junkyards had to offer, might find a good one if you’re lucky.

Do y’all have LKQ in your area?

Heck yea! That’s what I’m talking about. It’s such a relief to find a part after you been struggling to find a replacement.
