GM Parts Direct
Have any of you used GM Parts Direct to purchase parts, and if so, what was your experience like with them? I am needing to purchase a Torque Tube Assembly and wanted to know your thoughts. They are cheaper than most places, however I want to make sure they are good to do business with.
Thanks,

Call Fred Beans, Gene is having a sale through the end of january, selling GM parts at dealer cost. However, you must specifically ask for the parts at this price. Do a search and you will find his thread.

What agreat guy, a forum vendor, he has never let me down, he works with you and you can actually talk to him on the phone, and will go above and beyond most..
With GM parts direct, you can not send anything back.. you better know what you want... Gene makes sure that what you want is the correct part for your car via a vin number..
You cant even talk to anyone at GM Parts direct.
their shipping is high also..

I've ordered probably 100 things from GMPD over the years and never had a problem. They are also always the cheapest.
Having said that, buy from Fred Beans, they are even cheaper for the sale they are currently having. Same price but you won't pay as much shipping.

Found them.....................
Bought an Anti-Lock Brake Module for my GMC Sierra - Dealer was over $800.00 and GM Parts Direct was less than half - Shipping was costly, but stll a lot less than Mr. Local Dealer.

I haven't ordered from them yet, but just to compare prices I took a copy of their prices for drilled and slotted discs to my local gm dealer. He told me that he couldn't even buy them at the price GM direct was selling them for....!!!!

I bought the Z06 sway bar/end link/bushing kit (Z06stabkit) from GM Parts direct within the past month. Their price shipped was $1.30 higher than the GM dealer cost + reasonable shipping cost for the same item from another vendor. Close enough, and the parts arrived in about 3 days.
