The truck I got has aftermarket ones whose metal is so soft the cog and key ar mutilating each other and jumping off track after a yr of use | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,236 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,236 | For the most part, all of the vendors get their parts from the same source, there's not enough demand for different manufactures to tool up to make the same parts.
