[DML] Re: Angle Drive - cost effectiveness

["James Espey" <james@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Marc asked about a cost-effective "good" angle drive. Bill R used some math over at DMCTalk where the unit cost was divided by the warranty coverage. For our unit, that equates to about 16.4 cents per day.

I looked up the original DMC prices for the angle drive. Dealer retail in Sep 82 was $19.67 - not sure what, if any warranty was available on a dealer part like that. I also looked up what the factory paid for the angle drives, and as of April 82, they were $6.02 each.
