Has anybody bought from these people on eBay? What about the parts, are they worth the price difference between them and OEM?

Link to auction for Timing Kit.

 

I would stick to Toyota OEM

Talk to Evan at Northridge Toyota or Strap22

 

lol thats funny i found the same one but cheaper http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7993650128

 

good to see ya back here man!

 

Check in with Elvota. He has a bunch of stuff from that vendor and I had the impression that he was happy but I'd rather let him speak for himself. He has the 1st hand info.

 

Hmmm.... Don't have any proof to say anything bad about them, but my spidey-sense is tingling. I've personally never heard of them around here and checking mapquest puts that address down in a not-so-very-nice section of town. Last time I was down in that area, it was all warehouses - no retail stores around there.

But who knows, it could be legit and the guy(s) got a good deal on warehouse space...

I guess that didn't help much, huh... I'll shut up now...

Steve

 

Yeah, he's a funky dude. His ebay ad states no will call/pickup. Steve (Elvota) told me he wouldn't let him pickup period. I think maybe he's retired and just gets stuff drop shipped for some extra dough and doesn't want the hassle of face to face business. Might even run the whole thing from his cell phone while he's golfing or something.

 

Good to see you back J!

No help otherwise.

BTW, just moved out your way. Let me know when we can meet up and ride some trails (if there are any left).

 

I've got my OEM connection through 1sttoyotaparts.com already, I just wanted to know what people thought about the people I asked about.

 

Whenever. You still got my number? they've plowed a bunch near my house but that just made for more fun in my opinion. There's also some other spots I know, may not be legal but I don't care. I have to order some o-rings for one of my air lockers before I do any real wheeling though.
