• Online parts dealers

    Just a quick post to say that if anyone is looking for a reputable
    online auto parts supplier then I can thoroughly recommend these guys:

    https://alliedautoonline.com.au

    They have a good range at decent prices. I've been dealing with them for
    a while now and they've become my "go-to" supplier for less commonly
    available oil seals. They carry an excellent range and decent stock
    levels. But more importantly they're cheap, and deliver *very* quickly.

    For example, I needed a couple of 25x35x7 neoprene oil seals for this
    lathe I'm restoring, and while you can certainly get them they're not
    commonly stocked in "walk in" stores. These guys had a tonne of them,
    they were only $2.50 or so each and I ordered 5 at 4pm on Monday
    afternoon and they were waiting for me at the post office at 10am this morning.

    Excellent people and very professional, but if I had one complaint it
    would be the packaging. I mean, for fuck's sake fellas :)

    Thanks, I will check them out, a couple of days ago I was given a 2004
    MB CLK 320, it was written off, the owner was paid out $10k then given
    the car back but its not on the WOVR.
    He hit a wombat and damaged the radiator and ac condenser plus the
    plastic radiator surround that directs the air flow into the radiator,
    front bumper has some minor damage.
    Put it on the hoist expecting to find a bent sub frame of a bent
    steering rack or other damage but there isn't any.
    The owner was told that it was written off because there was $10k in
    damage but I can't find much damage, I've ordered a new radiator for
    $270 delivered, don't know yet of the condenser needs to be replaced,
    plan is to get it running a driving and take it from there, it started
    and drove onto a trailer without any problems.

    Nice. I don't know if they have much in the way of Benz parts but
    they're worth a try.

    Had the same thing last time. Ordered 4 seals for something else, and
    they came in a box big enough to hold 400 :)
