    Wondering if anyone knows the best place to shop for jeep parts online, specifically places that offer discounts to forum members. I’ve been using extreme terrain and quadratec so far but if anyone has another spot I’d love to check it out.

    Morris4x4center.com (just got bought out buy Best Top), 4wheelparts.com (usually cheapest, but never get my order right), 4wd.com (owned by 4wheelparts.com), summitracing.com, and one of my favorites because most of there stuff is a little more expensive but when they offer specials they offer great deals is 4x4groupbuy.com (my experience is that they keep their stuff in stock not shipped from the manufacturer). There are many many more. You can really shop around to get the best price.

    Locally Quadratec has great service and selection. Rick has been awesome and helps out fellow jeepers.

    I'm a huge fan of Quadratec. As im sure most have seen my posts. Their prices are in line with every one else. Their shipping is fantastic. And their customer service is incredible. And....which I'm a firm believer in being in the customer service field for years. Is product knowledge. If you don't know your product. You can't sell it.

    Not to change the subject. But it is along the same lines. Most recently. My issues with their Quadratop Adventure Top S issues. After speaking to a rep there, Received a new top, and a prepaid shipping label to send back the :censored: one.

    Several months ago. I had a Nighthawk Light Brow. $230 plus a $47 Jeep badge mounted on it. Blow off my JK while driving to work during a very windy gusty morning. I had called their customer service for another issue. Mentioned it to their rep what happened. Calls back a couple hours later, leaves a message. He had another Light Brow heading my way. I didn't ask, suggest, or any thing other wise. Ask for another one. He just sent it to me. Needless to say. I updated Nighthawks mounting instructions.

    Just my input. We all have our favorite Jeep parts suppliers. And for various reasons. Bottom line. Nothing beats that, my jeep parts came in. Lol.

    Next Aggrex. I was actually thinking about going to this since it's just under a 2 hour ride. But, my weekend plans depended on what the weather was going to like on Sunday. And since it looks like rain. I had some thing I needed to do today. So I had to pass.

    I see by your freebies what vendors were there. But I'm curious what Quadratec had out for sale. Was it worth the trip?

    It was a perfect day to be out and about because the weather forecasters were wrong as usual. Stayed for about 3 hr and met Rob of Quadratec who was recording videos on location. Multiple venders had time to discuss their products and answer questions. Lots of modified Jeeps displaying the neat accessories designed to improve the jeep experience (JW,ARB,Beststop,Putco,Ridgid,etc) some we may never want to afford (AEV) and some we don't really need but want. Two hr would be a hike for you but Quadratec is a big local vender that actively supports jeeping. I didn't spend much time at the scratch+dent tent but deals were available as many people (arrived early) bought large items (bumpers) up to 50% off that staff provided on-site delivery to your jeep service. Event discounts for accessories were generous from all of the venders.

    Sweet review aggrex. May just take the ride next event. Although that one shot looks like a Walmart opening on Black Friday for one HD TV, or a stubby bumper. Lolll. I will try to make it out for the next Tent Sale. And as long as you don't have an issue shaking hands. Lol. Good to see your making progress with your "sharing your BC".. We know how you had her sheltered for some time. . Great to see you sharing......Finally. lollll. Bad ass JK dude. :bowdown:

    Sweet aggrex. Damn. Going in to our season at work. 10 hour days, and 6 hour Saturdays. It's all good. Will pay for my next upgrade. I've seen their Jeeps and Java posts. Looks like a good time, and some awesome deals..... Have to pass again. :annoyed:. Sucks....I'll get to one. Just not this one. :(.

    Seems to be a short version of their QT Jeeps+Java 2.5 hr which would be tough for your commute. There will be other QT Jeeps+Javas to attend. One take home from the event besides flattening some stray pumpkins and getting sticky pumpkin juice all over is jeepin through the pumpkin patch green trail which could be scenic+memorable.
