Hi all. Just joined after an amazingly frustrating day on the phone with several Orlando junkyards. I am surprised that they do not have compatible parts for my '02 sport and am struggling to locate the lots that will let me pull my own parts. Vehicle runs great. Just needs a front turn signal, a few light sockets, a back window.....and later on a hood and front bumper. A/C compressor could use a little love as well. Will be searching these forums and will greatly appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Welcome! Make sure you check out the for sale section. Always part outs.
I'm just going to say this incase you didn't know, but use www.car-part.com it lists junkyards in your area with parts you need.
I beleive the 02 sport can use the 2nd gen rear window; they appear to be the same. I apologize if I am wrong.
A full service junkyard (where someone else pulls the part) is not too bad. If you get a guy who knows what they are doing. I just went to one and I liked that place.

The 01-05 Sport Trac front end parts are the same but the salvage yards should know that.

Certifit/Tampa will be the best choice for any large body parts and lights. They have quality parts that are most often less expensive than salvage yard used parts. I use their parts regularly and have never had any bad results from them.

Thanks guys. I will check all these out since my Orlando search is for some reason fruitless.
