Cj Pony parts... never again - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I recently decided to redo the otherwise fine front end of my 66 c10 just to make it pretty and remove 50 yrs of concrete grease. Sandblasted and painted everything and decided to go with all new hardware. Got upper and lower ball joints, u bolts, and new shocks from summit. The lower shafts were each $50 cheaper than summit so I got the upper and lower shafts, bushings and seals and lower bump stops from Cj. 3 days after I get an email that the bump stops are backorder till mid February. Cancel them and reuse the old ones. Now I get the upper shafts and while they are both fine theres a clear difference. One is in a crisp new box while the other is in just a dilapidated baggie. Seals are different and they were obviously manufactured by two companies. Cant wait to see what the lower shafts look like.

I got the floor well courtesy lights on my K20 from them, plug and play with the factory wire harness and had no issues at all with them or the parts.

I've been buying mustang parts from them for many years and have had really good luck with them. The Chevy truck parts I have bought from them haven't been the best. The mustang parts are 65/66 while the truck parts have been 60/66 parts. I think the mustang parts are better because of how popular those cars are and how long they have been reproducing the parts. While the 60-66 Chevy trucks are not near as popular. I love them both but overall the mustang parts are usually a better fit than the 60-66 Chevy truck parts regardless of the vendor. Just my opinion of what I've experienced.
