Suggestions for Kato replacement part

Are there any sources other than Kato direct for a replacement truck assembly for a CNW AC4400CW?  It appears the part is sold out on the Kato website.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the link, looks like I am out of luck.  This type of truck assembly is out of stock.

There's a guy on the bay that sells factory parts. I buy from him a lot. He just posted original F-7 trucks. They haven't been around for years. His name is  soo-much stuff. He also has a s bay store.

I think he makes a living buying stuff from the various manufactuers and selling it for more than what it goes for from the manufactuer....

Unfortunately it's sometimes the only place to look for stuff.

If N scale had good SD40-2s, C30-7s, U30Cs, SD45s, SD40s, and SW10s; I'd be in N scale.

Thanks again for all the help.  I spoke w/ someone from Kato and they think the replacement truck may be back in stock due to the release of the new GE units.  Apparantly they will be using the same trucks, makes sense to me.
