Rock Auto rocks

Don't know if any of you know about these guys, but they have incredible prices. I just bought a Dorman harmonic balancer for $87.77 inc shipping. The same exact part number at Autozone is $149.99. I've been buying parts from them for about six years with no problems.

The guy/girl that greets you at Wal-Mart, silly!

It's an aftermarket company. JC Whitney has them.

Yeah.....some people claim to have had problems with Rock auto parts. So far, I've not in over two years. Engnbldr uses Rock parts in his kits.

Never bother buying big items like that online. Always buy local or somewhere close. Shipping sucks!

Yes...I see that now. I didn't have the benefit of the link when I'd posted earlier.
