Napa sells Altrom parts as their upgraded line. They are definitely more expensive in most cases than their house brands. A buddy tells me that Altrom parts are very good quality and they actually make a lot of OEM parts for Toyota? He says you can buy the part from Napa and save a lot of money, or you can buy the same part in a Toyota box from the dealer and pay a bunch more. Any truth to this? In my case I need a fan clutch and the price difference is $92.

 

Can't say if they are better or not but I just install a sensor on a friends dodge from napa ,and it had the mopar symbol on it. He was told that the company also made the mopar parts.

 

I believe at least the rocker arms on the 22r/22re??? are OEM Altrom, do a few searches on here, they have been mentioned before, but yes some parts on the Toyota's are Altrom.

 

im gonna order my clutch fan from www. autohausaz.com aisin factory part 65.18 free shipping over 50buks ,as 4 the altrom head bolt set made in taiwan ! i have a set that i purchased from napa , the guy at the counter said all altrom parts come from the slow boats.

 

Thanks for the tip on Autohausaz. I just bought one. Cant beat that price for Aisin.

 

ur welcome ,i love that place , you'll b surprised how fast it will get there ! i purchased a bunch of stuff from them. think i order my clutch fan from them now. i ordered it !

 

I work for napa, so everything I buy for my truck is through us. I always go Altrom because of my employee discount, we stock everything I need, or can order it. A good example is I just did the rear axle seals and bearings. Our cheap chinese napa ones were more expensive than the Atrom, and I could see the difference.

 

in my opinion .. Altrom is the best replacement other the OEM


.

 

That is the best price I've seen so far on Aisin fan clutches. Might just have to pick one up for a later date
