We are always happy to assist other owners with spares. After all, we want to ensure that as many DAFs as possible stay roadworthy.
We don't have absolutely everything but it's always worth enquiring, you may be surprised what we do have in stock. The majority of our spares are used, although we do have a small supply of NOS items.
Sometimes parts hauls become available and members are asked whether they would like to contribute towards the costs of obtaining these; they can then take spares as and when needed from the parts barn.
We do break DAFs but only ones that are too far gone to realistically restore. Whilst we don't like to break them, we have to take a pragmatic approach to ensure that we will always have spares available for those DAFs still on the road, or indeed others which are in the process of being recommissioned.
Naturally, spares cars cost us money. Equally Essex DAFs' barns are rented and although the rental costs are reasonable they have to be covered. We do therefore have to ask for small considerations in return for any spares supplied and try to keep costs low. We trust you will understand our position.
Of course, quite often owners find that they have spares tucked away which they may not need and be willing to pass onto another owner. We wholeheartedly encourage this practice and it's what we would ideally like to do ourselves. If you have any spares that may of use to others then please start a thread and get posting!

) so if it is YA specific I'd be shocked if we have it! Hopefully rubber ones will do the trick for now.
