Check with Kenworth for Cummins parts!

Just a heads up for less expensive Cummins parts.
I'm going to replace my lift pump & called Cummins to order one. They qouted me just over $150 but didn't have one in stock. I got the part # and on a whim called Kenworth. They were $45 less. Thats close to 40% less!! The parts guy said they buy huge volume's of Cummins parts & get a big discount.
I'm at least going to check with them from now on before I buy.
