Workhorse parts getting hard to find????

[Goombay]

I was talking to my mechanic the other day and he told me he was having difficulty finding Workhorse parts and I might consider selling it. They are not a dedicated RV repair facility....they also work on buses, ambulances etc along with RV's. I have a 2004 RV on a P32 chassis and have gottten to the point stuff is starting to fail. I know someone bought Workhorse so I can see how this would be the case. Is anyone having problems getting parts for older Workhorse chassis?

Check "Omeys" website a lot of info on parts, cross reference and DIY info for work Horse. X2 on Rock Auto just got all new rubber brake lines for my 2003 workhose $102 for all 4. Just an FYI my right rear caliper kept sticking and overheating brake. (recall was done) 40 years with Cummins CT I do all my own work. Long story short I found the hose to caliper was plugged. There is a metal braket for the hose which wraps around the hose instead of a clamp. the bracket had rusted around the hose when I cut it open it was squeezed almost competely closed. On the outside there was no sign of a problem rubber was flexible. Replaced all 4 hoses.

No opinion on the Workhorse chassis, but I am amazed by some mechanic's and parts people who can't go outside of their regular vendor for parts, I have goggled some parts in front of their nose and found the part.

You can find lots of WorkHorse Parts and manuals here.

Did WH actually have a parts manufacturing facility, per say?
I mean the engine is GM, the trannies are either GM or Allison, the brakes are from different manufactures. The fuel filter can be converted to a GM for future savings....etc.

No problem on my end finding anything for ours. There are plenty of resources out there.

Depends on what you need.
Many after market parts are available.
Why go and buy from an expensive dealer versus generic locations?

No problems at all finding parts for my W chassis. Rock auto has some parts for a P32 as does Oemys-Performance.com, ultrarvproducts.com, and workhorseparts.com. I would guess that one of these places would be able to help you.
