Hello everybody! I have been lurking for a couple months and I am beginning to like this forum.

I have a friend that puchased a 1997 Dodge 3500 quad cab and needs a defrost actuator, a headliner, and the little metal ring that the bolts go through on the turbine side of the turbo.
What is a good source for these? He checked with the dealer about the headliner and they quoted him $600
He would also like to get the front seat redone.

What are your recommendations?

For the healiner I would try to find a local guy, many towns have one that does tehm out of their garage, I have found that most of these guys do good work, because all of their business comes from word of mouth. I would look for a shop that specalizes in auto upholstrey for the seats.

I believe the defrost actuator is a dealer only part.

Not sure on the ring...To dark to go out and look Although the dealer should have one as well, wouldn't hurt to ask.

And a 97 quad cab?

I'd suggest checking Ebay. They're always someone disassembling something.

I was trolling thru there a couple of days ago and ran across a guy selling the Cummins (front)plates. New, wrapped in celophane, including postage, $7! One guy had a complete rear drive shaft with carrier brg. for $125. You just never know....

"customheadliners@bellsouth.net" is a E-Bay seller for headliners. He seems like a knowledgable guy. I have been e-mailing him for info and will buy his product for my reg cab. It is a do-it-yourself product, but taking out the headliner is not hard. Total cost including adhesive is less than 50.00$

I found an actuator at a junk yard for $5.

Club Cab. Quad Cab is the ones with the rear suicide doors, they didn't come out till 98 We are pretty precise with these trucks on here. But it's ok... We may not be though
