who is joe joe parts on facebook

All my oem parts come from my local Toyota dealer. Being I been buying for around 30 years they have taken care of me. Granted, I am friends with the assistant manager of the department. They however, will take care of miss ordered pieces. No shipping charges and been good to me. I see a lot of dealers are not like this and that is a shame. So folks do need options. :-)
 
I despise how Facebook is ran with their open censorship of people and information with their ridiculous Fact Checkers and that they use us as their product by working with other tech giants like Google to inundate us with ads for products they think we want. I get your position, they're pretty evil.

I stay on Facebook because I can reach more people with my YouTube videos. I've joined around 40 Toyota Enthusiast pages that I can contribute to. I know, it's not like a forum. There's a plethora of shit talking that goes along with it but there's also lots of decent people on their too contributing. If it wasn't for my YouTube channel and wanting to contribute information to the Toyota Community, I'd ditch Facebook because I don't care for what they stand for and how they do business. They have way too much power and wield that power for their own interests.

Joe Joe's prices are hard to beat and he really is a very decent guy. He's done things like personally delivering a transmission to people so they didn't have to come up with the money for the $1000 core charge. No dealer is going to do that for you. Even though I know Joe Joe can save me money, I usually order through my local dealer, Stevens Creek Toyota, because they give me a pretty good discount and have helped me countless times look up parts for the jobs I film.


You have very good reason to despise Facebook as its a continuation of the CIA Life log project. Its quite interesting that project shut down the day Facebook went global. I personally, only use the messenger service of life log. As for the private messaging and groups a belong to.
 
I have to look for alternatives. Many cheap dealers who advertise free shipping , when it comes to small print....not alaska or hawaii. parts.toyota will not deal in alaska, and the local dealer ( only one) has the nearest competition over 300 miles away....owned by same group...and they dont give any kind of deals...and often thier prices are about 20% over what dealers charge in the lower 48.
so yep....im cheap....but try to use toyota parts when I can.
Have you looked at partsouq or amayama? I wonder if the shipping would be any different than shipping to the continental US since both of them are located outside of North America.

Stevens Creek has always been good to me too the few times I've gone (And if I needed parts off a totaled 3rd gen I'd go to see Jeff at Toy Connection hah)
 
Joe has probably saved me a few hundreds bucks on parts at this point. very legit, quick shipping and I believe he warranties all the parts he sells?
 
Add me to the list of pleased customers from this guy! I also chatted with him on the phone as I needed a flexplate in a speedy manner-- he fulfilled my order quickly and more affordably than any other legitimate place/person.
 
Met him in Socal at a Toyota meet, he's legit.

Ask anyone on the 3G4R SoCal FB group and they'll vouch for him.

For used parts, try consulting with Josh Young on Facebook. He runs a business named PNW 4Runner Connection in Washington where he parts out 3rd and 4th Gen 4runners. 登录 Facebook

If you bring Jeff some Corona the prices change for sure -- but I'm definitely with Tim about Josh Young and PNW Connection, he for sure prices everything fair.

That is interesting as I've heard only good things about JoeJoe and recently asked him to make me a decent sized parts list for a manual hub conversion as well as a Valve Cover Gasket replacement with new OEM everything. After comparing that list with cart I put together from McGeorge, I found JoeJoe's quote to be about $50-$75 more expensive. Makes me wonder if I forgot to add a part or looked up something incorrectly but after much comparison it turned out to be cheaper with McGeorge.

Not trying to start an argument just felt better going to JoeJoe rather than a parts outlet however if I'm to spend $600+ on parts, I couldn't knowingly pass that savings of $75 which is a rather large gap.
 
After seeing Joe Joe react poorly to people wanting reassurances that a guy with two first names and a joker picture on Facebook wouldn’t disappear with their money I won’t be doing any business with him. Do I know of anyone who was ripped off by him? No, but his reaction to those that weren’t praising him left a bad impression with me. I also haven’t found anything that he can get for cheaper than I can source between online US dealers and Amayama.

I saw that same thing, I already had a bad taste in my mouth about him after seeing how snarky and persuasive he was on there, not to mention the parts I was quoted were more expensive than the ones I could get at a dealer


Also, his claim that he doesn't make a profit is total bs, nobody would run something like this (over multiple models of vehicles, not just 4runners) out just the kindness in their heart, without anything in return

I can respect a hustle, but I'm not ever going to business with the guy.

Another parts source

Hello, I have had great results from parts.toyota.com, I have purchased a lot of parts over the last couple of months due to my daughters MR 2 Spyder being involved in an accident. The way it works is you order the parts and they send them to a local dealer that you select, and the dealer notifies you when they arrive. generally, there are no shipping charges. discounts are applied when you select the dealer. hope this helps ,Ray
 
I mostly pull all my toyota parts from my local dealer. I have been buying parts off them for almost 30 years.

I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. :)

I use my local dealer as they will handle wrong parts issues.

Their pricing is decent, and I have been buying so long the manager and assistant manager know me.

Granted, it's sometimes a pain to get over to it as it was 30 minutes away. We have a good relationship though.


I know some people use several online dealerships as well.
