Re: lmctruck comments?
I was disappointed with how much I had to massage the patch panels I bought from them..

Re: lmctruck comments?
I bought big block motor mounts, the bolts supplied with the mounts touched the block before tight. I've heard more bad then good so probably won't order anything more from them. Just my experience.

Re: lmctruck comments?
They have terrible customer service. I ordered a windshield gasket from them and they sent the wrong one. Right part number on the bag, but wrong gasket. I ordered one for the wide chrome trim and got the one for the narrow trim. After repeated calls with no remedy in sight, I ordered a Precision gasket from a forum member and it fit like a glove. LMC rocker patch panels didn't come close to fitting up near the door hinge area. I'm not bashing, just voicing MY opinion.

I just bought all of my tailgate componets from them and they arrived very quickly and had everything I ordered. Tons of small bolts etc.

Same with the parts board...shop for both price and value! The main advantages are that they know these trucks and will make sure you have the right part. As for LMC, they are a huge resource and if you need to research, they are great. The shop I share my warehouse with orders often and shipping has been quick and prices good. But sometimes not right. If something goes haywire, usually their phone staff will work with you. If they don't, you have to convince them that they have to. No matter where you get your parts, make sure you keep ALL of your packaging...especially the box (that even goes for returns to your parts store). My 2¢

Re: lmctruck comments?
Most people are going to speak negatively about LMC.i have had ok luck with them, and i have also ordered from all of the other mail order companys, Classic Parts of America, Classic Industries, California Truck shop, Brothers, and LMC. Most of the parts i have recieved have all been reproduced by "counterpart" wich is from Taiwan, all of these big companys seem to be selling the same stuff. The best you can do is look for who might have what you want cheaper or some kind of shipping incentive. I am also new around here, so i have not had the chance to check out the vendors here, but i would like to.

Re: lmctruck comments?
I ended up buying my front panel for my bed from brothers because shipping was 80 dollars less than lmc. However I am still waiting on it to show up when I ordered the lmc parts two days after ordering parts from brothers.

No problems with LMC here - purchased mostly cosmetic parts (body side trim, interior parts).

Re: lmctruck comments?
I'm going to buy new front and back bumpers soon. LMC offers a "premium" chrome bumper. Is this any better than what I will find elsewhere, I haven't seen anyone else offer two different quality bumpers.

AS far as I know LMC are the only ones who offer the two options, most others only offer the premium.
