How's rockauto?
Just curious if anyone has done business with them before I bought a Haynes repair manual through them and it came in pretty quick but I'm talking about the parts they sell in general if they are any good in terms of quality.

So good, so far.
I haven't had any issues with them.
I got most of my brake parts from them with I did my 5th upgrade. And I've got some parts for my dad's F-150.

I buy parts from them pretty regularly. Or at least use them to compare prices. You can always find a 5% discount code on Google. Shipping can get expensive, but I've never received a damaged part.

i use them regularly, zero issues, shipping can be high, but the 5% discount code flying around, usually takes care of that

they are great. unless I need something special for one of my vehicles, I stopped shopping around before buying from them; their prices are always either better or comparable to anyone else. quality products, huge inventory, and super fast shipping. can't go wrong.

Never had a problem with them.

Also moving this to OT where more people may benefit from this.

They always seem to have stuff I can't find elsewhere.

No problems for me.

Rockauto doesn't make their own parts.

Has anyone ordered cv axles from them? Which one did you order?

I found out I need new cv axles after I put my lift on. I have a 3in lifts in the front and they are binding while fully extended. My mechanic said he’s seen this issue before and it was caused by aftermarket axles that are smaller in diameter.

I’m just looking for a cheap alternative while I save up for CVJ axles.

I typically buy the upper end products from Rockauto. They tend to be the OEM parts.

No problems with Rock Auto, I've been ordering parts from them for at least 10 years.

It doesn't hurt shopping around though. Once in a while I'll find a better price with faster shipping from Amazon, or locally through Advance Auto Parts when they have a 20% discount code plus another $10-20 discount thanks to my previous purchases (signed up for their free Speed Perks program)

They're a forum sponsor, the subform always has the most up-to-date discount codes. Shipping may sometimes seem unreasonable for smaller parts, but I find even with the shipping cost for expedited shipping the grand total is still much less than buying from the local chain store like Pep Boys.

Yes, they sell a lot of OEM Aisin/DENSO parts for way cheaper than a dealer. Exact same manufacturer, just doesn't have a Toyota logo on it.
