Satisfaction Guarantee
All Stock parts have a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. Special ordered items are excluded from this guarantee.
Contact your sales rep with any issues regarding questions about any issues or whether the part is right for your vehicle or application.
Item Availability
Most orders for In-Stock items begin the order process as soon as your online purchase is completed. Items in stock will be shipped once the item is located in stock, your payment is approved, and the receiving address is verified. We do not process payment for Out of Stock and Backordered items.
Most orders placed prior to 1:00pm PST ship the same day. After your order leaves our facility, delivery times vary according to the shipping method you select during checkout and the location of your shipping address. Please note that business days are Monday-Friday, excluding federal holidays within the United States.
Special Order Items
Special Order & Drop Ship items require additional time before they can be shipped. These items ship once item is ready, your payment is approved, and the receiving address is verified.
Shipping
We use USPS Priority Mail for small packages and UPS for ground freight on larger packages. Through years of shipping products every different way we have determined that this is the best possible service that we can offer. Of course, you can always request faster services like 3-Day, 2-Day and Next Day delivery. These services will substantially increase the freight costs over our regular service.
Overseas orders are shipped via Priority Mail International unless it is too large for the Postal Service. UPS Expedited or UPS Express service is also available. The UPS service does guarantee that the product will get to you, but it also means that they will collect the duties and taxes for the shipment. We have found that usually orders up to $100 on average cost the same as a $5 order, so please keep this in mind when placing your orders. If you would like to know shipping fees ahead of time please call or email us for a freight quote.
Shipping Methods and Costs
Depending on the item(s) you purchase and the location to which the items will be delivered, different shipping methods will be available. Each shipping method has its own restrictions and charges that will be applied to your order. PLEASE NOTE: Liquid items CANNOT be sent out of the continental USA. Additionally, liquid items within continental USA must be sent via UPS Ground service at a minimum cost of around $20 or more.
At checkout, you will be prompted to choose a shipping method for your item(s). (Please note, some items may offer only one shipping method.) Shipping costs are dependent on the items in your order and the shipping method you select. Your total shipping charges will automatically compute during checkout prior to the completion of your order.
Shipping costs for orders are based on the weight and dimensions of the total order. An order containing multiple items typically receives a volume-shipping discount and therefore your total shipping and handling cost may be lower than the sum of individual ship charges appearing in your cart. You will be provided with the total shipping cost for your order during Checkout. When ordering in bulk it is best to phone in your order. Large orders may require special handling or shipping calculations which may delay your order if we cannot reach you to confirm the new shipping amount.
