Rockauto.com

all of the common, off the shelf, "if you have the partnumber, its the right part" kind of things, ive started to get from them...

they're alot cheaper then the local stores... all you have to do is be able to wait 3 days or so for it to get to ya... i saved $12 on my gates lower radiator hose. so i know they have gates parts.

anything you can wait on, but get locally, get thru them... good service, and cheap prices.

Gates belts are typically quite a bit more than other brands of belts. I personally have gates on my car, but never thought twice about selling OReilly's other brand Armor Mark to my customers. Gates has been around for a long time, and they used to have a lifetime warranty at places.
