[QUOTE="IronSnake, post: 15791599, member: 46336"] I buy from Amazon. I work for a vendor of RA's. Rock Auto doesn't stock anything themselves. Everything is cataloged, shipped, and returned through it's vendors own warehouses. If they've started stocking anything I'd be shocked. They do not stock anything of ours. In the last few years they've added folks dedicated to fixing catalog errors. I deal with them anytime we have issues. But what you're going through is a vendor wide issue that effects a great deal of manufacturers. The majority of folks cataloging your parts don't know diddly squat about cars, and the engineers creating the parts don't know anything but how to duplicate widgets. This could also be said about O'Reillys, Autozone, Advance, Carquest, Pepboys, and more. All of that bad data y'all are getting duped by gets sent off to them too. It's part of why I buy locally. Also a friendly FYI, Autozone has recently initiated a decision to slash in store prices to compete with online. You'll find most everything on RockAuto (their benchmark from what I can tell) about 5% cheaper than Autozone. Otherwise your local AZ isn't much more. OR and ADV have yet to jump on that wagon.
