evo 8/9 retainer part numbers

[warmachine87]

hey this is my firs post and i really need some help here im in a bit of a dilemma .

Ive been looking for days and have been unsuccessful in finding the part number for oem evo 8/9 valve spring retainers and keepers. My local dealer says they cant help me without a vin. ive searched the web and this site as hard as possible.

i did contact a place that sell oem mitsu parts and they gave me these part numbers

retainers- MN143698
keepers- MD016483

but they were not a 100% that they were correct. I just want to positive i got the right numbers because the dealer said if i order them im stuck with them, the quote on the retainers alone was $12 something each. I cant afford to be wrong

any help would be appreciated

thanks

Heres a vin for an 08 evo JA3AW86V98U049012, found an ad on line and they posted the vin for people to check the car.

Yes, those are the right part number but do not order them through your local dealership. Go to Mitsubishi Parts | OEM Mitsubishi Parts | Genuine Mitsubishi Parts type in those part numbers. The retainers are $6 and the keepers are $.85.

^^^ Thats the ticket! Also some of the supporting vendors carry some OEM parts and could help him out.

Yes, those are correct for 2003-2006 Evos.

Edit: Beat to it.
