For sure I aint no mechanic but I sometimes get by. But I have of late found that I had to call about 5 different places just to get my rear shocks
not in stock anywhere . I also found that amazon has moved into the auto parts biz and between them and Rock auto prices have fallen.
I got my my front shocks and strust thru autozone online because a online discount code popped up for 20% off as I was looking .
I was reading on the computer how amazon and online shopping for auto parts is eventually going to put the old school corner parts stores outta business.
