What parts company would you recommend for good quality and fitment? I'm bouncing between Golden State Parts, Brothers, and Classic Parts(Chevy Duty). Thanks for the input.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Some like Jim Carter offer discounts to forum users. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 35 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 35 | I have only ever ordered from classicparts. They have good customer service. Prices are great and quality is good. Except I don't know much about their metal, I don't deal with repro metal anyway. They do charge 10% of order shipping, so if you order 100 dollars worth of product your shipping is $10, kinda good, kinda bad. I have spent alot of money on shipping.
Their website is the best I think. I love their catalog too.
But I am definitely believe every distributor prolly has a pro and con. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 1,517 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2001 Posts: 1,517 | I have only ever ordered from classicparts.

Classic Parts, Jim Carter and LMC are all in Kansas City, so I don't have to mess with mail order, but LMC is litterally, less than 10 minutes away. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 4 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 4 | Thanks to all of you who answered....learned about Jim Carter parts...always something new to learn! | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 2,893 Socket Breaker | | Socket Breaker Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 2,893 | Review Board Conduct...Read before you post You may use the Review Board to give your opinion on a product, a supplier or service provider.

They are a major site sponsor and offer most of the parts you need and are quick on delivery. I only have had one order delayed and they contacted me immediately about that. Give them a call.
