Default Interest in NGK ignition sets???

Just checking to see if there is any interest in NGK plug and wire sets for the 4.0L Xj's. I'm an NGK dealer and can offer a discounted package here on the forum if there's enough interest. With current pricing we would be looking at about $76 shipped for an NGK wireset and six NGK V-Power plugs. Larger discounts will apply to those who order more product.

Wireset: NGK53168 MSRP: $47.55
Plugs: NGK7252 MSRP: $4.77 x 6= $28.62

Total MSRP: $76.17 + shipping & tax

I'm going to see if I can pull some strings and get a lower price so I can give you guys a better deal. I didn't realise that the price book I have is out dated and MSRP dropped a bit on the wireset.

I've noticed a serious decrease in the number of places stocking NGK products. Nobody wants to buy the quality parts when they can get cheap garbage for a fraction of the cost. My local Autozone used to carry NGK plugs and wires right on the shelf... now you can't even special order them.

For the record guys, I'm also an authorized dealer of Amsoil and Wix aswell as a few other brands. Don't be afraid to ask. I have no problems giving you an honest opinion on products whether good or bad.

Hahaha, Amsoil, the spammers of the auto world. Anyway, there are a number of reasons that stores stop carrying brands. I wouldn't blame the whole of the issue being cheap consumers.

I personally love Amsoil products. Nothing but good results running them.

While working at an Autoparts store, I was able to see that 18/20 customers will buy the cheapest part that's in stock no matter what the brand is. The only people I saw buying by brand were old timers.

Yeah people buy what's cheapest no matter what you tell them, that's why advance auto stopped selling champion plugs which is funny cuz they were cheaper than the others but apparently no one knew what they were so they didn't buy them. I'm gonna have to run ngk plugs now cuz of that

The NGK plugs work great in the 4.0L. I've been running them for years in my rig and when I put them in every other Jeep I get my hands on. I've never had a problem with them.
