of an 89 XJ I received the steering column with all attachments and it bolted up to the pump. 50 dollars in Peoria, IL. Also have leather power seats for 50 each. I still have to go pick 2 of them up.

They had a BOGO weekend not too long ago, I was able to replace my entire front end body for about $200, including a new serpentine and electric fan.

Half the new price for a given part should be the MOST you ever pay at a junkyard. That IS the rule at all the junkyards I do business with. So, do you research and if you have a JY dude try to charge you more, call him on the carpet with this rule. If he still won't budge on the price, walk out and go to another JY. I guaurantee you with the way the ecomomy is, you will get the part at your price from any JY dude with half a brain.
