    Whoo hoo! Welcom, Rock!

    On that topic, has anyone ever used the Spicer Red Label suspension parts? I know for a performance suspension the census is to go with NAPA HD balljoints and such, but what about for a non-performance daily driver? The price on the Red Label stuff seems too good.

    +1000 for Rockauto. Bought a MAF for the wife's car, $100 less than the dealer for the same part.

With FEDEX they don't give you this option. They provide their "service" unasked and charge you for this on top of what your tax dues are. This is the annoying thing.

    While if customs would decide to clear something I could go there and argue if I have an argument (and I did in the past with success). At the end though customs would only charge me for what is due, and this is acceptable. Not like Fedex putting your handling charge on top. And then if you don't have the cash at hand you have to wait another day if they arrive again......
    Hello,

    We have just updated our check out process to include duty and taxes (GST/VAT) where possible for shipments outside of the U.S. This should make ordering much easier for you if you know exactly what you are going to be charged. And not have to worry about additional charges when the parts are delivered.

    Hi,

    "Economy" or "Service Grade" parts like Spicer Red are usually made outside North America. They may look different than the OEM part they replace (though they will fit the vehicle). They may lack features like grease fittings or chamfered edges. They may use lower-quality materials and wear out sooner. These parts are designed to meet, but probably not exceed, OEM requirements. They're functional parts at a great price.

    If you're an aggressive driver, travel a lot of miles, use your truck to haul heavy loads, and plan to keep it a long time, it's probably worth the extra money for a "Professional Grade" part. If you're just running errands around town and your car has so many miles that the engine is likely to die before the brake pads or ball joints wear out, "Service Grade" is probably fine.

    Great Company !! When I bought front struts and a oil filter for my Neon the oil filter got a dent in it. I called and they sent out a replacement without any hassle. I'll certainly buy more from them.

    I got some computer parts from a vendor using this new UPS system of taxes in advance and it worked really well.... I was waiting with a baseball bat in case they tried any of their typical extortion methods, but nope, all paid up front... I was suspicious because often before they used to claim to the shipper that shipping was all inclusive... then they tagged $30 or so worth of fees on top of taxes... that era seems to be over, thank gawd. It really is all inclusive now, you pays your money... once!.... you gets your stuff.
