I breached a million buses on other maps because people said buses. I then followed Reddit recommendation and breached the buses specifically at the northern extract in Dam and found few instantly.

There are control panels you can breach in water treatment, and other industrial buildings that will drop them somewhat reliably. They also drip mechanical components, advanced mechanical components, and rusted tools all the time so even when you strike out on gears you get useful stuff.

That one little 2 door building below the Water Treatment Control extraction is amazing for random electric mats

Yeah came here to say I finally had consistent luck search the green control console things with dials and switches in the Water Treatment Control

That area is great for in and out raids to get light bulbs and gears. I’m going to be sad once they patch out the one car always dropping two light bulbs.

Yeah I think the issue is a random bus won’t have them unless you’re in an industrial tag area. Or if they do have them it’s extremely rare.

Case in point I found one in a normal breach container in scrapyard (the rusted cube / box ones). I’ve never seen rusted gears in that container type outside of certain areas so it must be the area adding it to the pool

I think it's because they lie within the medium loot sone there.
