I agree to a point... with that being said if you take your time you can usually come up with the OE parts pretty close to what OER would cost you... that is what I did... I would rather spend my time repairing OE parts than fixing the errors in Aftermarket... That is just me... But however it is you enjoy working on these trucks the key is Enjoy it and I am looking forward to seeing your progress... Merry Christmas... Dan
