PUrchasing online vs locally

I want to purchase my OME stuff online vs. locally. It seems to be much cheaper, plus I can wait to get the parts. I'm in no rush. I'm looking for suspension components for my 95. Where did you guys buy your stuff? I've been using Google to search for stuff, but am having a hard time locating things. It seems that all the links that turn up are for newer 4Runners. Thanks....

I guess you could buy locally in your area because of the population center. Here, southern MO, I have to mail order. Besides places like wheeler's know the Yota applications well. I ordered some stuff from 4x4 connection and got it real quick, even a tjm bumper! Also have ordered from wheeler's with positive vibe. Mike
