[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8921757, member: 673702"] Unfortunately, the non-defense sector has learned from the military industrial complex. I saw a podcast were they had a truck that the ABS died. $2200 for the sensor, pigtail and some brackets. Should be a $50, maybe $100 part. Maybe $2-300 if they really want to stick it to us. And that wasn't even dealer pricing. I remember when I was in the Marines, we would go thru the microfiche parts lists for shits and giggles and see how much shit cost and everything was rip-off. We had this "card puller" that was literally a ~2x3x.5 inch piece of plastic and some sheet metal, with a couple tabs. Probably could have this thing custom made on a CNC machine $50, but they were charging $800 for it and that 90s dollars. [/QUOTE]
