Summit is out of a Energy Suspension poly bushing I want, and has it back ordered. Will have to wait 3 weeks just to ship. So I deleted the bushing from the order and went looking elsewhere for the bushing.

Turns out Advance has it cheaper, and when I called the store, the guy ordered the part for me, shipped to the store so no shipping charges. I drive past this Advance store a few times a week, so its no big deal to pick up the part.

Who would have thought...... :lol:

Summit and Jeg's are not always the cheapest out there, and a lot of high end parts aren't in their catalogs either. I buy all of my AN fittings locally since the guy has a good selection and is cheaper than both.

I was making a pretty sizeable purchace from advanced and I looked up the prices in jegs before I left...Jegs was cheaper by about $300...advanced droped there price below jegs, didnt charge me shipping, and gave me 10% off anything else I bought that day. I was very happy Ill use advanced before auto zone now

Where do you get the AN fittings? Autozone or Advance or neither?
