Yeah. Also not surprising considering all those crazy places our leader was taking us, huh? Wait, that was you, wasn't it, Jack? Well, I should point out that bad things come in threes--for me it was a tire, the bent drag link and the crack in the hardtop. You better keep checking around for that third one! Maybe we need a separate thread just for the JK-Forum Aug 08 Disney Carnage. Laughing till it hurts.

Anyway, sorry to hear you bashed that up, but, as Ross said, glad it wasn't split open on the trail. That would have been a sorry mess! And, it looks like JK-Forum is coming through and getting you fixed up pretty cheap (I already spent $237 on a new tire!).

I just got an email from mopar and they stated the part has now gone up to $110 (Bottom half of oil pan). They want me to pay more when they made the error by not updating the price. I paid $40 late last week as it stated on the website. I went through their checkout procedure and all. Shouldn't they honor the previous price?

Yep - I just had to cancel my order. They now in fact do NOT sell the lower by itself. Makes me mad as hell. This of course negates any benefit from ordering from them. If I'm going to have to order the whole assembly, I'll just order it locally.

Just goes to show you how BS some online dealers can be, and why I don't usually buy from places like moparpartsamerica.

2 thumbs down! Maybe Don-A-Vee can answer this, but why is it that dealerships have to sell parts as specified by mopar? I don't understand why if I need one part but all mopar has is a kit..why can't I just get one part?
