Who has the best price on Dot 5?

Napa is $115 a gallon
Autozone in small bottles is $110 a gallon
TrueValue doesn't carry it
Kmart doesn't carry it
i just found a website Shop the Dude. a case of Blue magic $67 ($85 after shipping)

Check the classifieds. You should be able to get a gallon for $50

Sometimes you can find it on ebay or at a local swap and shop for a good price. I would only buy sealed containers. Contamination is bad for the brakes.

Keep lookin. Check around. It's out there surplus for a pretty reasonable price. Sometimes E-pay has surplus DOT 5 for a decent price

Hit up some of the MV shows. Its usually there even cheaper.

Someone listed a email address,sent a email got amount to send,sent funds and a sealed metal container came in a few weeks.Wish I knew who it was??Would order some more.

 

[crazywelder72]

a few weeks? i think i would rather pay a bit more and get the show on the road.

At the time a lot of places was out or did not know what I was asking for.

most motorcycle shops carry dot 5 . Seems like I paid about $10-12 a quart last time I bought some for my harley.

Might wanna look at that bottle again. Most civi DOT 5 is in the neighborhood of $10-$12 per pint, not quart

 

[panheadric]

pints were $5.99 . owning a motorcycle shop & paying dealer cost has it benefits ?

Amazon.com: North American NA41 DOT 5 Silicone Brake Fluid - 12 fl. oz.: Automotive

i did the math (even the new math) and at that price its over $130.00 a gallon. a pint is 16 fl oz and a US gallon is 128 fl oz. on ebay two weeks ago it was running about $75.00 a gallon (either a one gallon jug or 4 quarts).

Got mine last weekend at sussex show from Kublos for 45 a gallon. Eastern has it two for 50 and will be at aberdeen next week.

 

[crazywelder72]

without going to a show it looks like that website i found "i just found a website Shop the Dude. a case of Blue magic $67 ($85 after shipping)"had the best price.

eBay doesn't have any good deals going on as of last night, and i'm not going to drive a zillion miles to save $25-50 bucks. I want to go to a show or swap meet but i cant do it just yet.

since were obviously talking about brakes I have a question about the rears. Does the axle need to come out to pull the drum?

Try TNJ Murray : Military Vehicles For Sale | Military Trucks For Sale | M35A2 Duece - TNJ Murray

That's where I picked up a gallon at. I was very pleased with the purchase.
