Nothing new to say about that. It would appear that if you live close to them you get decent parts, if not you get hosed.

When I built Chips Bronco he bought a inner and outer quarterpanel from them and had it sent here. It was not very good ! BUT in their defense I don't know what Chip was willing to pay so maybe he got what he paid for. The only problem I see with that is that Chip wasn't the type to worry about a few bucks. Now that I see that restoration thread maybe they save the best parts for themselves with plans to use them.

I do remember well that at the time I was waiting and waiting and they told Chip the quarterpanel they were going to send fell off the truck and got damaged or some crap like that.

It could also just be good business in their mind thinking that they can sell junk and not many people willing to pay shipping back and forth back and forth on mostly big parts to begin with.

Yes, (per forum rules) please be sure you've given the vendor a chance to address the problem before posting complaints on the forums. Earl, please let me know if you've done that already. Thanks.

Wow, I buy a fair amount of stuff and have never heard of them. I must be in a cave.

Sorry to hear about your experience Bax, in the Connection's defense, I have bought several large parts/pieces and have good experiences. I think Dan is a stand up guy helping out a bunch of eb owners.
I have had a set of drivelines lost in the mail once by them. I called Dan a couple of times and he took care of it. I think it was most likely due to me moving to a new complex not on many of the UPS/FedEx maps yet. By the time I got my box, it looks like it had been shipped from Nebraska to Nevada twice over.

Parts out too many good broncos IMO.

And I don't think Bax was referring to Bronco Connection in particular.

I figured everyone would get it?:eek: Not worth explaining. I know nothing about the Bronco Connection.
