Title: Auto Wreckers
Post by: Chase on March 03, 2008, 08:27:02 PM

Hey people,
Anyone know of any auto wreckers around this area, who would of thought it would be so much work finding a trashed TJ.

You'll pay as much for a wrecker as you would for a mildly beat up 4 banger.

You wont get any wrecked tj's peanuts. There's just way to much money in parts on them.

Aside from that, Ken pretty much has the entire wrangler market.

This is not a auto wrecker, more of a auction

Impact Auto Auctions, the thing is you must be registered under the Motor Vehicle Dealers Act, own a body shop, or be in the salvage business. Not sure what you need to prove it.

Yeh, I've had a hard time reaching Jeep Stuff lately. They don't return calls and I've had to go out and strip the parts off myself (with no discount for doing so). Then to make matters worse, the axle I bought was supposed to be out of a scout 2(ken said so himself) and it was from a larger scout. It sat in my garage a month before I had time to work on it. Now these is no warranty so I just waisted $400 on an axle I can't use. And yes, I even tried to get some kind of credit but was denied. The business is for sale and I just don't think they care as much anymore.
