Manes Truck Parts?
I was just wondering if anyone out here has used this place before? My wife just told me today that she ordered me a couple things just before Christmas, but obviously they haven't shown up yet, and she says that she hasn't been able to reach them....their phone just rings with no answer or voicemail.
I'm sure things are just tough around the holidays, just wondering if anyone else out here has any experience with them....she found them on her own, and they appear to have some good prices on stuff. TIA

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
I've ordered some stuff from them. No trouble getting parts but since it's the holidays I'd wait until next week to try to reach them again.

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
I'm in their area & have stopped in a few times. It is a good mom& pop operation. I dont buy much there because I'm closer to LMC & Classic parts. If you don't contact them after the holidays let me know & i'll swing buy there. georgec2434@yahoo.com

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
I've dealt with Ron for over 10 years, no problem. I bet with the holiday they closed up for the week and a half. They are good people. Give them a call first of the week and they should be there. Randy

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
It is a small business, but their reputation is right out there with the rest of the suppliers.

Yep, good folks. Built a whole truck with them, and their prices are better many times.

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
I have ordered many parts from them and have nothing but good things to say.
2 examples. I was looking for a resister that goes behind the fuel gauge and no one sold one i could find so I asked them if they sold one and they said no but they would send one anyway with my next order. Also I was thinking about ordering full doors from them and before I did they told me the doors they have right now are not fitting up right and told me ide be better off to get them from another dealer. How many parts places like this do you know of that will lose themselves over a grand to be honest like that? Also last year I ordered a sending unit around this time and had the same shipping thing you are going through.. just be patiant and the tracking email will come and the phone will be picked up. Manes...good people. |

Re: Manes Truck Parts?
Thanks for the replies everyone....they did give a call back and confirmed that the items had been shipped. There was just a little delay due to not being in stock. Seem like real nice folks.
