Bandit Parts Online?

Anyone know where I can find parts for my 250xp online anywhere?

I know I can call Bandit. I'm looking for somewhere online.

For cheaper or....?

For info. For instance I just spent 3 days of back and forth with them trying to get a price for a new grille, a piece of metal that is dented and new fenders only to find out the prices are outrageous and I will probably go without for a few months. Would have been a lot easier to just pull it up online.

Blades and filters aside, its hard to get prices for parts online. You'll usually just get a "call for a quote" at best. Luckily most bandit parts are not proprietary and can be found at local bearing shops, NAPA stores, clutch stores etc, you can substitute things, or have them made up. Make friends with a local welder and you can probably get a lot of things done for a reasonable price. I've added different things to my 250XP over the years and usually just fab up what I need from scrap.

Nice album by the way

If you think Bandit parts are expensive then try moving to Australia. Then you double the price and add a bit more.

Get to know someone like imagineero who has the same chipper and is more than willing to pass on how-to knowledge.

Our last fix was a new torque arm after the old one fractured and tore off the upper feed hydraulic motor (destroying the hydraulic hose along the way.)

Great guys to deal with. Very helpful with questions I've had in the past.
I've purchased some parts off Todd. Great prices.

I tend to check on ebay for those expensive items. There was a Cat grill there for half price a while ago.
