    hey guys. i was able to get a build list for the columbia glider i bought. but it doesnt show coolant hose part #,s and belts and so on. any idea how to get parts if dealer cant find anything with my vin. now i can tell you if this will help. i was able to get the original vin (year 1997) of the truck. its a 2016 now. would ot work in terms of getting parts since it was a rebuilt or do they change things around when they rebuild it.

    I have a 16 glider myself dealer very helpful if they can't find the right parts I can't buy them. There goal is to sell them! How's your glider doing and what are the speck s if you don't mind sharing

    I go to Detroit diesel not Kenworth. As far as when I say “dealer” that’s what I meant...

    I found all this stuff out the hard way too. I’d go to kenworth with vin and they can’t do much because it’s showing something different in there system as far as parts are concerned, so I just started going straight to Detroit Diesel. If it’s a part that I don’t have off yet, I go by the build sheet....
