Default New and used parts

http://www.mintonmotorsinc.com/index.html

my sisters truck decided that it didn't like the driveshaft any more and spit it out while her husband was cruising down the interstate. the truck ended up needing a new transfer case (driveshaft cracked it) and a new driveshaft (18 wheeler ran it over). she got the drive shaft from minton motors and saved a lot over buying a new one, i can't remember how much but it was a lot.
anyway, that place is like a graveyard for dodge trucks so if you need a salvage item give them a call.

bump

ron333 just saved 600+$ on a steering knuckle for his 2nd gen ram and has his truck back on the road thanks to these guys. he said that it took 3 days to get his part and was happy with the service. so if you need a used part then give minton motors a call.

Thanks for the head-up Sheriff420! I've been looking for a place like this since I got my Dakota. I hope I have the same luck your Sister had as far as finding the needed parts for a good price.
