Default any used Jeeppartspeople.com ?

Has anyone used this company before. Jeeppartspeople.com I am looking for a set of rubicon rails and the price is $271. Thats much lower than anywhere else. But I cant find any reviews or info on this site.

looks fishy

No reviews, much much cheaper price, and you thought enough to post here before buying....

What is your gut telling you?

Run.

If it looks sketchy, and you're hesitant about putting your credit card info on there, then stay away.

The only thing I could say would be okay to try if you can pay via PayPal if something is to go wrong they won't have your credit card information.

EDIT: Do they have a contact number? If so call them and speak to someone first hand. That may help too.

Good luck.

Why don't you just pick up a set of take-offs? Even cheaper and you get a face to face transaction.

The way it looks is this place is actually a stealership. And they sell genuine OEM parts so I am assuming that means MOPAR. Plus I think they wanted to say 'swing away tire carrier' but instead they said 'swing away fire carrier' (now that I think of it a swing away fire carrier would be sweet, mines the jeep rollen down the street with an olympic torch on the back). That's just bad QCQA. I would stay away, that's just me though.

Default At one time im sure nobody heard of Northridge 4x4 or Quadratec

Well if you REALLY wanted to know if they were trustworthy you could always find a cheaper $20 or $40 item and buy it from them, then based off of that you could get a bumper or rubi rails if thats what you were looking for. If its legit then you could save some cash, their prices arent all that much lower than anyone elses, and the fact that they dont advertise ANYWHERE means they dont have to charge you more to pay for a 200 page catalog. That along with it being a small company that probably doesnt sell for much more than what they get I'd say youre looking at just your average unheard of buisness. Although, you could always use that website to try to get some of the more established dealers to come down to do a price match.
