Customer Reviews
I just redid the brakes and belts on my 79 FJ40. Being new to the Land Cruiser world, I needed help. I got great help. Super knowledgeable, asked me questions, and with my photos, solved some mysteries and correctly identified the unique nature of my South American restoration. Within a week my parts were in hand and I couldn't be happier with the service and the assistance. Thank you JL @ SOR.
We bought a head that was supposed to be remanufactured. The valve guides we're worn so bad that all of them needed replaced. The valve job wasn't even done properly. They lapped the valves in and considered that a valve job. We spent $2500.00 for this head. When we called them. They were rude. There comment was "If you don't like it, then send it back. Good luck trying to find a head somewhere else." Unfortunately we couldn't find another head, so we spent $700.00 to have this head rebuilt properly.
I don’t like not leaving 5 stars but I’ve been shopping here since I was a teen and lately I’ve noticed they are about 25% more expensive as other suppliers, not to mention shipping is robbery. Tiny gasket set UPS they charged $24 1 state away. Wow. Wow guy who answered the phone today was so rude. I’ll never buy there again.
Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful staff. There are a lot of options for Land Cruiser parts, give your money to a shop that has been doing this for years and supports the cruiser community!
Word of Caution: do a thorough parts inventory when you package arrives and be sure not to destroy the packaging..........I ordered some parts to rebuild my 4-speed transmission in my 40, from the larger box I pulled out the smaller box and items I could see. I assumed that the syncroring's were in the smaller box, did not think anything of it. Fast forward to installation, like 3 days later and they were not in there, called Specter, they took the route that it was my fault, as they claim that because they scan barcodes it would be impossible for them to ever mess up. I had to pay for them again to get them to ship the replacement, did not even offer to help with shipping, did not really care at all honestly. Anyways, just thought I would let everyone know, as I have bought many pro
