Hi Joe, I did my most every thing over on my IOS-84 2 years ago and they didn't have parts any where including Oregon. Therefore I had no choice but go through my front end shop who had to go through ( who I think was) United Distributors who, as I understand has the sole distribution rights for the front end parts for Dana which come out of the sub contracting manufacturer in Portugal who in turn works with more outside machine shops for some of the various. Even the Manufacturer was out of stock on some pieces needed and I had to wait for them to reach enough back orders to place a batch order with 2 different machine shops so as to complete the whole part need. It took me 3-1/2 months and over $6000 to finish the job.
Bottom line you were lucky, you got a great price with great availability.
