55 Fargo Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 hey all ordered a new MC and front brake hoses from Rock Auto, Raybestos, hopefully US built and Dorman chinese brake hoses. The master was $93, hoses were $7 a piece. I have to reverse the lid on the master,so the fill cap lines up with access hole in truck floor, anyone else have to do this?..... Quote

I told a particular Online Mopar parts store, but somehow the message didn't make it to China. I flipped mine after I installed it. but missed my opportunity to give the MC the few coats of epoxy paint it deserved. Hank Edited December 22, 2013 by HanksB3B Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 You usually have to flip the six bolt the cover to put the fill plug in the proper front or rear easiest fill position. I Just did the this for a 31 CD8 Chrysler a few months ago. The seller won't do it for you unless they have lots of free time on their hands! Quote

Did you have to pay duty to get the parts across the border? Quote
55 Fargo Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Posted December 23, 2013 Hank, will painting it with Trusty Tremclad rust paint with hardener... I told a particular Online Mopar parts store, but somehow the message didn't make it to China.

Hank Hi Bob, yes flipped it around, the MC is made in the USA, the good part about it. You usually have to flip the six bolt the cover to put the fill plug in the proper front or rear easiest fill position. I Just did the this for a 31 CD8 Chrysler a few months ago. The seller won't do it for you unless they have lots of free time on their hands! Nope, no duty, I have a US address, along the border, this time, no GST/PST was applied, bonus....PS no duty on goods made in NA, but GST/PST for your province.

1950 Special Deluxe Posted December 23, 2013 Report Posted December 23, 2013 When I ordered parts for my truck from RockAuto, I had the parts shipped to a member in the US and then he repackaged them and sent them to me. After I sent him the postage using PayPal it was still less than 1/2 the cost of getting RockAuto to ship them direct to me. Quote

I ship directly to Mikes Parcel Pickup at Pembina ND, which is 1 hour south of here, they charge $5 each shipment, I either go, or many others where i work do the same, and they pick it up and bring it to me. Living in the border towns would be so convenient... Quote
