Where can I buy quality 100k pots for a homemade steering/pedal system?

Hello, I am looking for good quality, reasonably priced potentiometers for my homemade steering/pedal system. The $1.49 pots that I currently purchase from Radio Shack are wearing out after about a month of hard racin! Thomas Enterprise has pots but they seem expensive. I figure I could save some money buying them directly from a manufacture or through a distributor. Any recommendations for a good source of 100k ohms linear pots would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help! John Boles

I have had great success using the Digikey pots in my TSW2. The ones I got are 100k pots. The p/n is RV4NAYSJ104A You can order them direct from Digikey at http://www.digikey.com/ They'll run ya about 5.50 a pot. -- Don Burnette Palmetto Racing Dburn on Ten AOLL Iroc Administrator >Hello, I am looking for good quality, reasonably priced potentiometers for my >homemade steering/pedal system.
