Default 29 bucks for a bolt

It was actually $19, but after the nut, washer and shipping it's $29 for the top rear shock mounting bolt from a P dealer.

Simply outrageous.

It’s one expensive mistake to over torque that bolt, never thought it would have popped.

Try $1500.00 for a pair of snap ring pliers to do part of the overhaul on the old TF-30 turbofans on the F-14.

There, don't you feel better now?

NO, we're talking parts, j/k. Try 300 bucks for a Ford, now that's a rip off!
