    Recommended a pull-a-part?

    Hey guys, im looking to get parts for a 5-lug conversion and was wondering if you guys had suggestions on good wrecking yards? ive done some research and it looks like the general consensus is to stay away from Aurora. it looks like there is a big yard in woodinville too that i will probably check out...any other places you guys suggest?

    im trying to purchase everything as new as possible, but i dont wanna go too overboard and drain my account haha...mainly just looking to pick up some used CA's, trailing arm, spindles, and calipers. i may purchase some parts off ebay, but id rather get them in person if i have the opportunity.

    thanks

        I've had luck with Aurora Auto wrecking in Seattle.

          +1 for Aurora Auto, but they're somewhat expensive and everything is already pulled and sorted.

            I'd buy the control arms new if I were you just to know that the ball joints are good/threads not damaged/boots not torn.

              I agree, they are on the higher end of the price scale. But most of the things that I have purchased there, I pulled off of the cars myself. That was about three or four years ago though, so it may have changed since then.
