Quick and easy but I do think that the shipping of $5.70 is too high for such a small item. Could have been about half of that cost since it will most likely be sent in a padded envelope....

Already got hosed trying to get the right brake lines,...hope it don't happen here.

Order 12486. Item was simple to find and the website made it very easy to navigate. I appreciated the ability to pay with paypal and email notifications gave me confidence that everything was taken care of properly.

Great Website for shopping

easy to use site with fair pricing

Great Prices and fast, fast shipping. I will definitely do business with them again.

Very simple and easy to work on thanks
