I have found that local salvage yards can be just as bad or worse then eBay stuff. But with local stuff, you're more likely able to return the item. The best bet has always been to buy from folks on ebay w/ near perfect or perfect feedback, then you know you'll be taken care of. Be wary of any ebay seller with huge feedback numbers, chances are you may never get a response from them, because of the huge volume they have to handle, especially if they have negative feedback that is continuous from month to month. I've only bought a handfull of used atv stuff off ebay. I did have some trouble once buying a used item for my Polaris, but was able to return the item (since I bought it from a dedicated atv dealer/seller). Buy smart, use some common sense, and you'll probably be happy buying from ebay.

Good luck on that.

$200-$250

 

That's don't seem too bad for a POD that controls so much!!.........I bet the used parts places will still charge 75-80 % of new list price anyway!!!!..............Caper...............

Maybe the cost of a replacement will teach riders how much the next roll-over will cost!!

 

While looking for a new axle for my scrammy I came across this site.... THought I'd bookmark it just in case.
