#96000, "Parts Dinosaur Service"


          

I just wanted to let anyone thinking of purchasing engine parts or simple maintenance stuff to think of Parts Dinosaur (www.partsdinosaur.com).

I purchased all my engine rebuild stuff from Bruce back in December and have been slowly working on my rebuild when time permits.

I recently had a problem with one of the items I ordered and quickly emailed Bruce regarding the issue. Within 30 minutes I got a response from him that he would ship out a new part that day. Can you believe almost instant response to my problem? I wish all online vendors did business like Bruce from Parts Dinosaur. The previous parts I ordered were all correct and came nicely packaged, Bruce even responded quickly to my questions regarding particular items I needed.

Just thought I would pass this along to anyone considering purchasing parts for their motors. Its not too often I see over the top service from online vendors.

**Sorry moderator if this is not a proper post for this particular forum but I wasn't sure if I should post this in the review section since it is not about one particular part.**

I agree. PartsDinosaur is an outstanding vendor and not just for our community but it is documented all across the online car enthusiast community... Double thumbs up!

Still not much word on how well the mechanical tensioners are though.

Rock on. Bruce is a good guy. When it comes time to rebuild my new daily driver, I'll be contacting him for pretty much everything I need. emoji

I emailed him last night and there was an email waiting for me today when I woke up.

I agree with everything above. He definately makes customer service a priority. Everything is shipped quickly and I've never received the wrong product. It's an old-school kind of vibe from him, like he'll personally write you a "thanks for your business! -Bruce" on your receipt. I recommend him as one of the best vendors for 2gnt parts
