Angry Stock nightmare

Is it just me or is it a nightmare to get any parts at the moment? It seems to have changed for the worse since the new ownership/distribution changes from March.
Using the find a dealer section of the Durango website a lot don’t have websites or websites that work. Some linked to don’t list Durango parts and most of the rest have next to no stock. It’s ridiculous.
Has anyone found a good source of spares in the UK?

Must be honest, I never seem to have a problem. Try using MB Models, they normally have good stock.

Its taking a bit more effort than it did ~6 months ago.

So i have to search half a dozen or more shops, rather than 2 or 3.
Still not found anything that is truly out of stock everywhere. (Even managed to find a set of front UJs for the 410, in Germany)

Thanks guys. MB Models do appear to have more stock that most but still have significant shortages and I am still unable to find several parts I need.

I've had the same issue. Through speaking to CPD racing and a few others it is a nightmare for them to even place an order with durango for stuff. Bit worrying

Maybe give us a call or send a email from the website, we have a few kits we have split in the past when stock has taken a long time to arrive, we may have the items you need.

Thanks

I know for a fact that the new distribution is working much better on mainland europe. France has really struggled with the previous distributor, but shops are now able to stock Team Durango products.

It takes time for things to settle down during transition periods like this, just give it a bit more time before making judgements. Stock levels at the new warehouse are good.

Just my 0.02€
