Have you tried Bird? |

I looked at TAC and couldn't locate anything. BUT not everything is on the site, so a phone call might be in order. 800-848-0756 I seem to remember them offering IC side slide parts at one time, but those aren't listed either.
Only place I'm find this item is Blue Bird dealers, but again, they could just not be posted anywhere. |

Also, if you're new to this business, the dealers aren't like car dealers. They are generally not way over priced on stuff. |

I respectfully disagree, (about 35% of the time). I think my favorites are when there is a "left" and "right" or a "front" and "rear" of something...you know...identical except for the handing...and there's a $100 difference in price. |

Hmm, maybe it's a brand thing. Central States even has free shipping for anything over 50 bucks. I really need to make a list of these benefits and compare. |

Free shipping over $50 would be awesome! Our bird dealer does a delivery route on Friday that we can usually take advantage of. International dealer does runs all day every day around here due to local industry using their products. |

We do a circuit around the state depending on the day, but if we are delivering your bus back to you, the driver will bring the parts with them. They will next day air or bring the parts if you really need them too. |
