They sell just about everything and are all over the country.
Cannot thank you enough for your reply. Diesel mechanics know what is what like I knew(now retired) what was what as a practicing Orthodontist and listened to other Orthodontists when I was treating a particular difficult case and needed help when strange stuff happened. Yes. No matter what your profession, strange things pop up and others are always ahead of you.
Great info and thanks again.
