Hi all, |
|
Its been a while since I last posted but looking at my landy |
|
today I thought I would treat it!!! |
|
But while making a list I wondered where to look first. Now I |
|
have used many suppliers over the years. |
|
Craddocks, Paddocks, jgs4x4, Lune Valley 4x4, ect |
|
But I thought id open a post for peoples good experiences. (and |
|
bad for whom to ignore not bitch about) |
|
Now I really don't like Britpart I think I would like a supplier |
|
where I don't need to search and make sure it isn't brit, but |
|
what's the best alternative? Bearmark? |
|
I thought it may need sectioning; |
|
General Parts |
|
I don't really know who's good or bad I have good experiences |
|
with a few to be fair. |
|
JGS4x4? |
|
Chassis |
|
Richard Chassis |
|
Wiring Loom |
|
Autosparks |
|
Conversions |
|
Steve Parker |
|
Please join in and post below. |
|
Cheers Jonny |

Richards chassis were brilliant with me. I collected and got a |
|
conducted tour and a free bumper from the MD. He was very |
|
passionate about making a good product. If I remember rightly he |
|
was called Alistair, nice chap! |

Automec are good for brake pipe sets |
|
Dunsfold are food for those hard to find series parts. Mostly |
|
genuine. |

I'll second that from Blanchards. Good friendly service and they |
|
have always had what I wanted in stock. |

Steve Parkers have done my rear wheel bearings, then post lock |
|

|
very patient auto electrician who put to rights my erratic 24v |
|
Lights and horn. |

Britpart supply a variety of qualities and if you go for their |
|
OEM or Genuine options, they are as good as anyone else! I have |
|
had Bearmach parts that are no good, and some genuine Land Rover |
|
parts too over the years. |
|
Craddocks have come in for some criticism recently regarding |
|
quality of service, but I have had no problems even during our |
|
current 'situation'. |
|
Paddocks service has been OK too. |
|
If you use 'Britcar', they also give options on a lot of parts |
|
between Genuine, OEM and 'pattern' - you only get what you pay |
|
for! |
