I think anything there is over priced. I need to go up there and get a spare rear axle shaft and look for another front driveshaft.

Heck I think they under price everything... if your lucky u can buy a dana 60 for the same price as a Dana 30... they don't care... just gotta catch the fresh truck before everyone else!

Personally, I have no complaints, Twice I asked for them to get a forklift & lift a Jeep to be able to remove a item & they did.
The reason I drive the hour/+ down there is because of their prices. Sure, I could get the parts 20 minutes from my house but the local prices are typically 50-99% higher. (Example: a XJ door locally was $250, PAP was $25, see my point?)
But, some of their prices are higher than you can get them for new. Do your homework BEFORE you go. I always ask the price of the part when I walk in the door if I am not 100% sure. I don't like surprises at checkout.
I have found one local yard that is extremely reasonable on their prices. But they are pretty small & don't have many Jeeps in the yard.

x2. I like pull-a-part. I went down there for a couple things I needed and decided I'd pick up a BUNCH of interior pieces while I was there, and they didn't charge me for any of it. I only paid for the header panel pieces and airbox. Pretty cool.

I seen guys get charged $1 for a lug nut, 'cause it's the only thing they bought but others (me) were given ALOT of small things. As long as you buy some thing(s) that add up to $50 +/- they simply don't care.
