Junkyard Wishlists

[apbt_rescue]

I find myself in the local junkyard from time to time pulling items for my own clunkers. What are some E30 items in short supply that would help fellow DIYers that I or others should be cognizant of in case we have a free arm to lug it from the yard?

This serves a triple purpose: prevent it from being scrapped if the yard tosses whats left of a car, stock a few extra parts for our own E30s, and make a dollar or two thereby trips to the junkyard and hours spent toiling can be justified to the wives/girlfriends/significant others.

Keep the suggestions specific to the more unique items that are harder to come by or cost a month's pay check if bought new.


Powertrain

• Half Shafts
• ABS Sensors

Interior

• dash

Exterior

Miscellaneous

• toolkit items

iX Specific (my personal favorite as its impractical to engine swap or afford replacement drive-train parts)

• transfer case
• front differential

only if shipping was cheaper, otherwise local.

shipping a heavy item or large item of course is going to be expensive but remember mr. vang people live on the east coast too so maybe by me grabbing a hard to find item while i am already at a yard maybe, just maybe i can help someone out who is local to me. the unique thing about suggestions is that anyone can use them as ideas to grab while self pulling parts at a yard. since e30s on the east coast are pretty similar to e30s on the west coast, the suggestions potentially help everyone.
