I'm not brand loyal at all. I buy very few OEM parts at all. But every now and then there are some things that are dealer only items. I was searching E-Bay for some rear axle u-bolt plates and found these to be the cheapest ones on there. Original Mopar and from a dealer being the cheapest hard to believe. That's not the case though with the $3000 VP44 they have. Here's the link. They are from @dripley's home town. Wonder if he knows them?

Yes I do. Bought my 96 from them 20+ years ago. Bought my sparevtire winch replacement there for less than anywhere else at the time. Nothing wtong with place just s typical dealer. They will give me the on line price if I walk in.
