Anyone know where the cheapest or best valued place is to get ball joints annd tie rod ends in Aus/Sydney....maybe Repco ??? If so is there anyone who can get me a trade discount?

REPCO they dont cost much bout $30-$40

Probably not Repco, unless you get a trade discount they are relatively expensive, buy they have a good range.

I actually thought Repco stood for: Rip Every Poor 'Chap' Off

Je

yes but we dont say "chap" do we

I find Supercheap Auto (QLD) cheaper than Repco
But Supercheap always dont have the parts you're looking for and repco seems to know more and have a wide range of parts and they can even order some if they dont have it.

Repco carry the 'Silverline' brand which are rubbish IMO

Hi converted, I use Budget Auto Parts in Oxley.
I used to sell them Honda parts and they have always looked after me.
And with the repco stuff here is a comparison.
New genuine air cleaner for a 88 prelude retail $39.00 trade price app 35.00.
repco's retail app $87.00 and trade price was about 65.00.
As you can see for the mechanic has a bigger mark up on the part but who ends up paying.
Thats why I always say get a Genuine price first then check the non genuine price
