| Filler from SOR
I am having to pick up some last minute items from SOR for a 74 FJ40:
Heatriser gasket
2 heatriser bolts ( bolt intake and exhaust manifold together).
and everything adds up to about $10. SOR says it charges a minimum for everything up to $20 on shipping. so i am looking for fillers. What are the things you find yourselves ordering often that only SOR has? anything?
or... if anyone has an extra gasket and non head-stripped bolts....

| Hi All:
Well, how about a couple of the t-case output shaft seals?
A t-case parking brake re-build kit?
New Nippondenso spark plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor?
Any number of "filler" items available from SOR.
Regards,
Alan

How about telling SOR to stick it....get them cheaper & get them quicker to Wa. D.C. from Cdan.
Some things we might need to get from SOR, MAF, etc. And for that we are lucky to have them around. But for OEM stuff, build a relationship with a dealer that truly wants your business, gives you a great discount & can really help you out when/if you really get in a bind.
Personal opinion only...yours may differ.
