after getting a suspension check  i'm going through the list buying the parts i need to replace. i called up nissan for some of the bits and pieces. got most of them for the price pedders listed on the quote. except when i asked for a RH lower ball joint, the nissan guy says its double what the pedders quote says ($73 vs ~$142). the guy at nissan said pedders had probably quoted for a cheaper taiwanese alternative. and he suggested i go for the cheaper one, what he didnt tell me was where to get it from. i thought you guys might be able to help me out here.

woah long post for one question  :P

Bursons, Repco etc.  Just ask for the best price, or even say that you work for "such and such" mechanics, or just say that you want trade price. that usually gets you a good discount :D
