4 wheel parts...

Yeah I'm over in ellensburg WA and didn't really want to drive over to the west side. Over here it's mostly online haha

 

There's a 4 Wheel Parts location near where I work. I buy from them frequently. Just bought Toyo A/T tires for the Taco and they're installing 'em on Monday. No issues other than not all of their employees speak Toyota. Found one guy in that location who converted a Taco into a caged rockcrawling monster.

 

I have found this forum, it's members and the vendors who cater to us to be WAY more helpful in all things Tacoma than 4WP had ever been to me.

 

When i lived in Hi i had a lot of problems with 4 wheel parts there they stunk and ordering from the company sucks but i have got to tell you 4 wheel parts in miami has been awesome to me nicest employees always help me out which is weird because miami in general is the rudest place on earth and i cant wait to leave. Im all for supporting the little guy and thats who i usually order from but unfortunately there arent any other shops in my area. I only go there for alignments though so dunno bout ordering from them

 

My buddy got the same kind of run around and rudeness. Told him to call Toytec. They took good care of him and they have excellent customer service. He tried to give 4wheel 1 more chance and they were jerks again so he canceled his order. We picked the stuff up from Toytec the next day, They have always taken good care of me when I have ordered stuff from them, and they will get more of my money in the future.

 

I just want to say the 4wheelparts in tampa is pretty awesome. They helped me get my arb compressor and parts I was missing to install a rearend and setup the locker that I bought separately from a guy off TW. It was a mess bc I bought third party and brought it to them thinking I had everything I needed... I was wrong... It took the salesman a few calls to arb direct to figure it all out but in the end when I decided not to have them install the stuff I purchased I did get a lil attitude but I can maybe understand a bit bc he might have lost his install commission or something. lol. I did feel bad that I made him find the parts I was missing but I was a locker newb then. I guess its just all about the store you go to. Tampa store is brand new and maybe their not burned out yet?

 

If what you want is in stock, and that exact part number shows a fit for your exact vehicle in their book, you will have no problem.

If their book does not show a fit, you will have to sign a waiver that you will not return the item based on improper fitment.

If it is not in stock, it will be faster for you to drive to the manufacturer and buy it direct... or buy it from Summit.

 

I bought my Mickey Thompson wheels from my local 4WheelParts recently and they were super nice and helpful. The wheels came in without any big wait and when I went to pick them up they even did a test fit for free to make sure they would fit.
However, they did admit to being Chrysler fan boys and everyone that worked there had a Wrangler or a Ram. My new MT wheels will require conical seat extended thread lug nuts and the guy at the counter jokingly called them Evil Toyota lug nuts because they had ET (extended thread) in the product code. I laughed and brushed that off. But what shook my confidence in them and made me realize that they just don't know anything about Toyotas was when the mechanic doing my wheel (16"x8" with 0" offset and 4.5" bs) test fit wrote on the receipt that I cannot run anything larger than a 245x75R16 tire because they will rub. Jeep guys should stick to their Jeeps I guess.
Anyway, I will buy stuff from them again, but I will have to know exactly what I want and not rely on them for any advice or recommendations.

 

Going to the store might be different but ordering online they were just so rude. Seemed like they didn't even want my money. I know people who go to the store and say it's good. Only some stores.

 

If it does not work out again..

I called them a week ago about some mounting options for my resi's and the tool on the phone had a crappy attitude, I was gonna pick them up at the Tacoma location but now I'm just gonna order from somewhere else

Edit: sdhq any deals going on for cyber Monday I'll order today

 

No real sales on any of the mount's, most come with the coilovers, But these would work
