Blue Oval Truck Parts
Hey just dropping in a note about Blue Oval Truck Parts magazine. If anybody has taken a look @ it, its almost like LMC, but I have found some different items in there that are not in LMC and vice versa. Never have ordered from them. If anybody has please let me know. The prices in it seem a lil higher than LMC. Just wondering how the service was and how good the parts are.

I ordered my new battery tray from there.
It is a very nice repop, good heavy steel, just like the original. Fit was good too.
They are A+ in my book

re: Blue Oval Truck Parts
The last item I orded from them took two weeks to arrive. It was a stocked item, a seat repair kit. The quality was so poor I couldn't use it. I have never received anything of quality from BOTP.

re: Blue Oval Truck Parts
If they have the item I am looking for, I order from them. I'm in California (as is BOTP) and they overnight it to me every time. Also, the same folks always answer the phone so it's a little more personal attention. They were willing to measure certain items I was interested in buying.
They are A+++ in my book.

re: Blue Oval Truck Parts
I have ordered parts from them and was very impressed. They kept me updated via email, quick delivery, and good quality parts.

re: Blue Oval Truck Parts
Well, I got some parts from BOTP this week, and ordered a bunch more. Being in California, we had the privilege of going down to the actual BOTP building and picked up the parts we needed (woohoo no shipping costs ).
The guy that runs the place is really friendly and helpful. The building is about the size of an AutoZone, with various (common) parts stored there, and the rest stored somewhere else/has to be ordered.
Another cool piece of info for other Southern California folks:
BOTP guy asked what other stuff we wanted to get for the truck, so we pulled out our LMC catalog and said, "We want these things (e.g, billet grille, etc.), but we didn't see them in your catalog, so we're gonna order them from LMC." Well, he told us BOTP and LMC help each other out and share parts, so anything we want from LMC he can get for us, and we won't have to pay shipping because we can just pick the parts up from BOTP

That's cool!
I do like that new billet grille LMC has. If I had one of those years truck, I'd have to consider it.
Glad you have a source nearby!
