most salvage yards around me hide the jeeps in a seperate lot (seriously) and the best place i've found so far (not in michigan) but not too far either, www.daveysjeeps.com jeeps only salvage yard, not too cheap but alot cheaper than new and they pretty much have everything and will ship.

Not sure about the rest, but the one in Oak Park is a residential neighborhood. There is no salvage yard there, trust me.

And Four Wheel Drive Hardware is a new parts company that puts out a catalog and has a web site. In fact, most of us have probably bought something from 4WD at one point or another.

I've found this website to be a pretty handy place to find parts.

I think he put that down as a way to get a hold of him, he keeps his stash up north surrounding his other place.

I have heard there was a decent yard right there in Clare, although his prices were kinda high. Zemkos I believe.

Craig no longer is parting out jeeps. All he has left is his LJ I believe as well.

Spromart is going through a final liqudation. Too many people are no longer motivated to work for what they want and think they are entitled to everything. (Guess they all voted for Obama. ) Just isn't worth the effort anymore. After all the excess parts are gone, whole vehicles will probably go up for sale.

Wow...Thats a name I almost forgot. I grew up across the street from him . My father and him were friends. He had a house of old TV's ,parts of a pipe organ, assorted electtronics and anything else you imagined. It was pretty cool going there as a kid as he was a authentic tinkerer.
Hope he is doing fine.
