Default Customer For Life

OK,

I've already posted a positive review of Oakos Automotive, but Dave went so far out of his way to help me recently that I need to post again:

Because I'm a big dumb ape, I managed to destroy the splinedrive socket supplied by McGard with my splinedrive and wheel lock kit. McGard couldn't help me (I lost my bill of sale) and I had no way to get my splinedrives off my wheels. After weeks of trying to figure out what to do, I emailed Dave (who sold me the McGards) and asked if there was any way he could sell me a new splinedrive socket.

Well, rather than selling me the socket, Dave mailed me a replacement socket for free. He absolutely saved me a ton of money and time, since my local auto shop wanted about $100 to wrestle all my splinedrives off. I am an Oakos customer for life, and would recommend Dave to everyone. He is my benchmark vendor and his customer service is head and shoulders above anyone else I've dealt with.

Thumbs up Oakos

Oakos is great! I ordered some exhaust hangers from them last week, were shipped the same day... David said 3-4 days, so I figured that was pretty reasonable... except I got them in 2 days!!! Oakos is a great place to do business with, keep up the good work!

Just recieved my 17 Gun Metal Sub Zero's. And wanted to say thanks to Dave for answering all my questions, and geting me a awsome deal on some spare center caps! Shiping was the fastest i have ever received in my life, for an iteam of this size.

The only thing i wish was diffrent was that he sold more awsome products! I would never purchase from anyone else.

Thanks again,

Will

Oakos never missed shipping the items ASAP. Unlike some other vendors who ship the following day even if you order it early in the morning.

Thank you for the Speed Bleeder and (coming soon) Bobcat pads.

Ed, Thanks again for your order. I am now sure why UPS required a sig for the package. They should have just left it on your porch. Sometimes it's hard to figure out why they do what they do...

At least you will have them tomorrow. I think you are going to really like the parts, I have Bobcat pads and the SS lines on my car and I've been really happy with them so far.

Thanks a lot, Tom!

I think that the only complaint in this thread is that we don't carry enough parts. But I'm working on that...

Thanks, Mike & ripvw!!

Trust me, more parts are on the way. We have come a long way since we started (just look up one of our old ads in the vendors forum where we had like 5 or 10 parts total ) and this is just the beginning.

Had great service from Dave. Ordered off his website and received the goods the next day. Dave sent me an email confirming the order, and another confirming shipment with a tracking number all the same day. That's good customer service, I give Oakos Automotive a thumbs up.

I just got some McGard spline drives from Oakos...excellent service. Received confirmation email and tracking right away. I could not be happier.

I would have bought wheels from him too except I found some locally used
