I see that they sell name brands and the shipping seems to be reasonable. Looks like they sell Metro seals, is that a brand to stay away from? Thanks for the input.

Their prices are about the best I found, and their shipping was reasonable and fast. I would definitely buy from them again. Also, check out the Hot Deals section of this site for the discount code, and you'll save 5% on your order.

Watch the shipping though, because several items in one order shipped from different locations can run the cost up quick. Metro Molded Parts seems to have good reputation, as compared to the other two or three rubber parts places. My $0.02

I found a current discount code there on Sunday, September 6th, but it's gone now. I wonder if they've been deleted (do the mods do this?). Unfortunately, I just copied and pasted it, and didn't write it down.

Reference "Lehman Brothers", "Merrill Lynch", "AIG" - they just don't care. They suck because they don't stock everything you needed in one location? I love Rock Auto. Fair shipping costs, quick delivery, and very quick to credit you when you return something. As mentioned, their prices usually are (but not always) significantly lower on the exact same part found in other places. In short, Rock Auto rocks.

I HAD to get a M/C for a Dakota daily driver today. I checked Rocks price on one and O'Reilly down the street was 5 bucks cheaper for the same part #. Both co,s have a core charge. Gotta check around.

They wouldn't take it back, no refund, no exchanges and it was totally their fault. Bastards, I'll never use them again. VP of Mopar Muscle Cars of Austin 70 Challenger www.mopar.org

When I called them to get a boot sent they sent me a whole new tie rod and said keep the first one. Quick shipping on the in stock stuff too. 1970 Fury III, 318, 4 dr hardtop, aka "The Fridge"
