parts from Willcox
Looking to buy fuel lines, parking brake cables, and trailing arm shim kits. Willcox seems to have the best price on the combination. I've never bought from them before. Any opinions would be appreciated especially about the shim kit as online it doesn't note the number of shims or grade of the bolts. PM response is fine if you don't want to to public.

You’ll be fine ordering from them. They are an active forum sponsor and are responsive if there are any problems with parts or orders. With the forum discounts, you’ll be hard pressed to do better.

Willcox is great and provides lots of help around here.
No matter who you order from make sure you check shipping charges. Sometimes you can get a better deal from the same vendor by buying on Amazon or Ebay.....same part, same vendor, different shipping charges.
Also, shop around since some vendors will sell the same parts (actually from the same common place) for less, and for different shipping charges. Like a BIG DIFFERENCE in shipping charges.

I recently ordered parts from RPIdesigns (one of our supporting vendors) just because they had the best shipping charges. Prices were similar but shipping was a big difference. Look around.
There are also some outfits that have wonderful prices but the shipping is ridiculous---
