    Rockauto is what I use. Often even cheaper than what I can get through work.
    To me that's fucked up. I just went to balance auto to get a power steering rack quote and they ordered from rock auto because have never seen one cheaper anywhere else.

    In the states though they have 10x the market and can cut costs due to sheer volume. And then because they aren't scum, pass those savings on to us.

    Might be putting in a bigger order shortly. Considering shipping to MSO in sweetgrass to save a little on shipping. Although, it may be a wash compared to fuel etc.
    Was looking at AutoPartsWay because of the free shipping, but it seems like they don't carry the parts I wanted, or thier website sucks, because I can't find brake rotors for my truck there (2010 Chev 2500).
    Order from RockAuto, search for a 5% off coupon code.

    Just make sure all the stuff in your cart ships from the same place.

    Last order I made with RA was ordered Monday evening and was delivered by Wednesday afternoon.

    All duty/taxes prepaid at checkout so no surprise fees at the door.

    AutoPartsWay is garbage compared to RockAuto imo.

    Rockauto has been great. I’ve spent thousands through them in the past few years and always have received parts on time or ahead of schedule. Recently ordered a LS-7 clutch and flywheel kit through them for a really good price.

    I think probably just a stroker kit would be fine.

    Another vote for Rock Auto.

    In June 2018, I ordered a set of brake pads, a set of brake shoes, two front brake rotors, two rear brake drums, and a set of 4 TPMS sensors for my 2008 GMC Sierra 1500. I ordered mid-range parts, and doing a price comparison to the exact or closest quality locally, I saved $200: $467.xx shipped to my door through Rock Auto -- $687.xx through Auto Value here in Calgary -- even higher if I'd gone through Napa or Canadian Tire. I placed the order at 10am on Tuesday, June 12 and all of the parts were on my doorstep by 3pm on Thursday, June 14.

    Chester told me about Rock auto, the prices are sooooo much better than anything local. Just ordered some parts earlier today, the prices were nearly half as much as Napa.

    Thanks bud. Turns out I didn't need quite as much as I thought from Rockauto, but this still saved me ten bucks off my $200 order.

    How in the world do you apply the discount to their cart? Spent far too long trying to figure it out last night.

    There's a "who referred you" space or something. They don't call it a coupon code. I had to find a YouTube video explaining it.

    thanks!
    got some new brake parts coming, just wish they all came from the same warehouse.

    Sometimes it's cheaper to buy more expensive parts to get things from the same warehouse. Not always an option though.

    What’s wrong with different warehouses? Last week my order was split up and it was still super reasonable and here in like 3 days. Is it cheaper from the same warehouse?

    Shipping is cheaper if it's the same warehouse.
