Re:Help.....VP44 ugghhh

Best of my knowledge, VP44's aren't being made anymore.<br>It will be rebuilt no matter where you get it.<br><br>I've seen prices of $1,300.00 for just the pump,<br>and $1,600.00 installed.<br><br>Don't think you'll be able to beat that $1,250.00.<br><br>The only thing I can think of is try a junkyard, maybe they have one and don't know what they have.<br><br>It'll be a crap shoot though, buyer beware.<br><br>best of luck,<br><br>phox<br><br>P.S. too bad you voided your warranty there with all those BOMB's ;D

Just noticed that notation in your sig.<br><br>Dang, I don't think I'll see that mileage during my lifetime, it'll be up to either my son or daughter, whomever inherits from me to put that on it.<br><br>By then it'll be converted to hovercraft and run on Mr. Fusion. <br><br>I think I lucked out , already have a new one on mine, got it at 4,000 miles when mine went TU.<br><br>Once again, good luck.<br><br>phox<br><br>

I have heard of people finding them for $750 + $200 core, but I don't know where. I would check some diesel injection shops if I were you.
