When Onur has this avatar you will know he has finally arrived.I guess I'll just have to look for a change in avatar to know when you start buying more parts from yourself

Ohhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhhhh, purty
As others have said, driveline crossover with 60 series occurs a lot. The axle shafts on the long left side are different, and one tie rod end- the rest is the same to 1990. Front ends then differ but you can find the stuff 1990-1998. Coils did not come in to front until 1999 along with five lug. There are many tricks to get stuff, the key being buying the cheapest latest version if you need new that fits. Body was same to 2006, light oak stuff is easy to get versus sepia brown (post and then pre 1990).
-US dealers- guys have their favorites shipping is usually the big thing. If you need a windshield ask who will get you one.
-Amayama is dirt cheap on many things, but freight is expensive-make the largest order you can at one time.- remember if from UAE you pay for DHL and then get a customs duty. Japan is mostly ems post and i have yet to see a duty bill. Again, find the latest part that can fit.
-ENS, they are the SOR for the 70 series, when you need it at any cost yesterday.
-SOR I have never found a 70 series part at specter I could not get elsewhere for less money. NOT THEIR SPECIALTY esp with Marv gone.
-Akella-Yan can score good things as well.
-Dave japan4x4, a good source
-Extreme Bends, Radd, G&S, all have used inventory from time to time and all have helped me out.
-Maarten at http://all-american.nl/ is a good source for euro stuff
I have used a few Australian Toyota dealers in the past when stuff does not show up elsewhere. Ask around. Freight is the killer, 2-3x UAE amayama freight.
I find the part number, shop it on http://oemparter.com/ the see if US part or not (15+ stores it is), compare to amayama price. I make lists and get what I need as time allows.
