50% increase in prices on the parts I need. anyone have these?
I've got a 1991 Bravo that has the clutch cone welded to the gear. My mechanic first says he has the update kit on his shelf. He thinks it's $360. I say ok, fix it. He doesn't have the parts. He orders them on Wed. finds out the update kit is now $860! I'm pissed but say order them and fix it. The parts are suposed to be here today. Today he finds out the are backordered until the 15th, and they are now $1200!! This is crazy!!
Anyone have these on their shelf for the old price? Or close to it.

The new kit includes the latest style gears (3) & bearings, in addition to the shift fork, clutch and upper drive shaft. It is not a bad deal. If you really want the older style gears I might have a set, give me a call at 954 545 8681, or email [email protected]

Why the price increase this year? Did they add more to the latest update kit? Or just decide that all the older Bravos will need this, Let's charge more.
Marc, I'll call you in the morning.
Thanks
