Just found this site http://www.dieselspares.com.au
How do these prices stackup against locally sourced kits?

i work in truck parts and i will never sell an aftermarket kit to a customer ever if they want it they can buy it themself.

you get bugger all support from aftermarket supplyers, and when it comes to droped valves and shit like that its just not worth it.....

if you were to go aftermarket go for something like bnt or something couse they are reputable enough

yea just go to appco or bnt

do you know anyone in the trade? i dont have to worry becouse i deal with all the people around town all the time, but what i get our guys at work to do is go in to get prices in the overalls and they usualy get trade

but allways price genuine you would be supprised some times at the price

alot of time the genuine part will be within 15% of the aftermarket price in which case genuine is your freind.
