WTB: 15inch A-Frame & Board +/- Fan

So my T60 (see sig) is in a coma. Mostly due to physical assault from what I can tell.
Used by a relative, and apparently, everything magically broke. Yet It looks like someone took a hammer to it.
Though it looks absolutely destroyed, the hinges apparently survived the *sudden magical* assault. So that's good.
Anyways, so the repair guy says I need an A-Frame and a base for a 15inch.
I figured I might as well get another fan/assembly too since the last one had pretty much stopped working.
If you have anything like this let me know.
Thanks.

Or does anyone know where I can order these directly from Lenovo?
How would I figure out what the part numbers are given the informaion in my signature?
Any help is appreciated.
I need to procure these parts this week, so that's why I'm posting here so quickly.

You should be able to find out what most of the major parts that were shipped with the system by plugging in the TYPE (2623) and S/N into this page:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... yle=lenovo
I believe parts may be ordered from here:

Thanks for that info.
So I went to the website but I couldn't identify the FRUs for the A-Frame, Base and Fan.
So I called the IBM parts order service, but they needed a definite FRU before an order could be placed.
He suggested I contact Lenovo technical support to get the FRU numbers from them.
I contacted Lenovo technicall support; they wasted half an hour of my time taking down various information.
Then, they very rudely informed me that since my machine was out of warranty they could not disclose the FRU.
I mean he literally knew what FRU numbers I wanted, and just wouldn't read them out to me. That's messed up.
So, basically, I still don't know the FRU; though I do have this list below which might contain the knowledge I seek.
Can anyone see if they can spot the relevant parts in there? I couldnt.

Hey,
So I found this website:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... 62741.html
Here I was able to locate "Base cover assembly for 2623 (15.0-in.)" and "Structure Frame (15in)".
For my machine (2623-K8U), they have FRUs 41V9970 and 42R9912 respectively.
But I want to make sure with you guys:
Is "A-frame" the same thing as "Structure Frame (15in)"
Is "Base" the same thing as "Base cover assembly for 2623 (15.0-in.)"
Also for the fan, I found "Thermal device and fan (Discrete)" with FRU 41W6407.
However, there are 2 types of fans there: Integrated vs Discrete.
My type (2623-K8U) only shows up in the Discrete version. What's the difference?
And what is this "Thermal Device" ? I just want to replace the fan.
Thanks.
EDIT/UPDATE:
So I just called them up, and it seems that ordering these parts from IBM is
way too expensive.
So if anyone still has an A-frame, Base and Fan they would like to sell me, please do let me know.
Still looking.
Thanks you again.

You might consider this on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-Thinkpad-T60-15 ... 1c193bc7ba
Base, frame and motherboard with the same GPU as yours. Then buy a fan, move your components over and be up and running in an hour; later try to sell your MB to lower the cost.
or another, with more saleable parts:
http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-ThinkPad-T60-Mo ... 2a0dd6b5f1
or:
http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-ThinkPad-T60-15 ... 35aef7a22a
"Discrete" refers to your ATI GPU and requires a different heat sink than the integrated Intel GPU. Lots of 41W6407 assemblies on ebay:
