Online Parts Stores!
I would like to start a list of online parts stores that we have dealt with. Any members that might like to post experiences (Good/Bad). So far the only online store that I have made a purchase from would be Cabella's. Service was good, quality was good, but a little on the pricey side.

I've ordered from Troyer Performance, does that count as a online store?
Got my order in 2 days flat, good service.
My only suggestion (for Canadians who order from US)
Don't agree to let a store ship to you with UPS.
UPS charges an unreasonably high "brokerage fee"
Just to give you an example:
My Cervini hood was shipped freight collect, and the "brokerage fee" was $18. (not bad considering the hood is large and cost $439)
Then I order $90 worth of stuff from a company who uses UPS, and their "brokerage fee" was $55, WTF? (This was the brokerage fee charged by UPS, not the company)
As a result, I'll never use UPS again, buncha theivin *****.

I understand... they do offer on-line purchases I believe...
On the flip side, if you ever need something replaced on your truck, Torrie is the man!
I can't say enough good about them... www.fordpartsnetwork.com
That's the only place I'll get parts for my truck.

RockPick,
I check out your link. They have a very user friendly online catalog. But the prices seemed a little high to me. But no doubt about it, Sometimes ya just need to talk to someone who knows their sh-t. Torrie's da man huh?

Torrie is da man...
He's always been the 'low guy' when I inquired on parts from fordpartsonline and a couple of the other ones...
That's just a personal testimony though...
