We have a local independent parts store, Parks, and I've used their
lifetime replacement option on a starter and an alternator.
The first "lifetime" starter I took in, they did not have a record and I
did not have the receipt, but the starter still had the part number sticker

I ask a parts manager one time "Just exactly what IS a lifetime replacement
?"
His reply has stayed with me, its classic "If you ever bring the son of a
bitch back, I'll kill you".

a 70's Ford, enough understeer for a dozen cars and far to much "bling" on the

I have taken a few of those newer soul-less rattle box cars out for a spin.
They are nothing like the 35 year old SD in build quality, handling, or cabin

A couple years later one leaked. A local parts store that stocked KYB replaced
them.

Thanks for the pointers, Grant!
I’m not going to invest any more time or effort into this for now. The hole is
closed up and the bumper is stabilized, which is really all I care about at
this point. If I go any further I’ll drop the $275 or so on Amazon for a new

Scan the receipt into the computer to make sure you
have it when the time comes. Those receipts have a
habit of fading to invisibility in time. They used to
do unlimited replacements. I recall the Jeep water pump
I replaced 3-4 times in the 20 years we had it. The
last time they said there was

Max, look for a local car paint store. When I needed
some paint to do a patch on my wife's truck the place
