Anyone ever order from them? Basically they're a clearinghouse for remanufactured auto parts that are priced way below the chain parts stores. They seem to carry everything on earth but you have to know what you're looking for-the interface is not that friendly, so if you're not absolutely sure of what you need it can be daunting to find it and be sure that it's right. They also carry varying grades of parts from cheap Chinese aftermarket to high quality brand name remanufactured (ie: Raybestos, Wagner, etc...) stuff. I am considering ordering a set of calipers from them for my 1991 Toyota pickup. An easy upgrade for these trucks is to use the calipers and rotors from a T-100 1 ton 4x4-the brakes are huge compared to the stock brakes the little 4 cylinder trucks came with. The problem is the core charges that most brick and mortar stores charge-my local NAPA wants $138 each for the calipers-the core charge is around $75, which works out to over $200 a caliper when all is said and done. Rock Auto only charges $89 for the caliper (these are for Raybestos loaded calipers) and a $10 core which I'll eat for a total cost of $99 a caliper. Sounds pretty good, but I'm wondering if anyone here has had any experience with them?
