Rotor Spec's --- what do you know ....

Jen from Auto Barn sent me a note late last week - asking for idea's on  how to get rotor spec's ...she has a customer who keeps calling her and having her look them up ...

Here is what awe have found so far ....

Paper - to date ( a few days into ) the data comes from Motor.  Suppliers like Affinia have STOPPED providing this info for FREE and now charge for their book.  The current booklet # is #4281BPI.

Now -- get this - we were originally told this was $13 and change from CARQUEST --I see the price in our system today is $7.01  ( part BDR 4281BPI --- IGNORE what the system says to sell for - always sell at COST for something like this ) .... or call Affinia and use our Auto Sense account ( could get tricky ... but that is another story .... for  ...see reply from rep ...

 These used to be a "free" item up until this past year. They now cost $2.95 per book (our cost) and are available from the order desk @ 1-800-211-1426 ext.3373. The part number is 4281BPI. The spec guides are actually published by Motor Information Systems. We just put our own cover on it. I'm not sure if Motor Information Systems have an electronic version or not. Their web site is www.motor.com

update on paper --got a copy from CARQUEST --the published date is 2007 ...returning it today ...so if you order one - hope you get a newer version  .... like 2011?

WEB Based -  still trying to get more options on web based .... but here is a cute side story ....

What ????   The Image represents what you just saw .....  so we have written the Image guys in Raleigh to ask them why the 'standard image'  is not standard ...

HINT -- you might want to BOOK MARK the better URL ( do you know what a URL is  ... if not CLICK HERE ) ...and share with any customers who can benefit .... and show them how you can CHANGE the LINE and the PART# to get different spec's ....
