Anyone have luck with aftermarket parts for heavy equipment? If so what brand or company are you working with and what kind of warranty are you getting? I run a repair shop and can't get discount at the dealers so I can't mark the parts up when the customer can buy them over the counter for the same price. Looking for some insight from what you independent guys do. Thanks

Aftermarket is usually my first choice for undercarriage, cylinder repacking, and pretty much anytime I can find it. The cost is usually half of oem and most reputable suppliers will be a pleasure to work with but do your homework first
