Default Anybody buy parts from Laurel Mountaing Mustang

Laurel Mountain Mustang


They seem to have good prices, and a good selection. I'm doubting that the parts are any different from what you can get at NDP or mustang plus. But anybody have experience with them? Quality of parts?

Thanks
Nate

I've heard good things about them, even their own brand of parts they sell like their springs.

I would recommend Opentracker for your front suspension.

Bought an Export Brace from them a couple of years ago. Had no problem dealing with them and their price was lower than most of the larger resto vendors. My regular vendor was out of stock on this part. Saw Laurel's ad and price in Mustang Monthly, so I ordered from them.

It's funny though, for some reason they never sent me a catalog. You'd think buying something would at least qualify me for one.

I've bought from them and everything was ok at first. Then when I got my third? order, the trunk floors that I'd made a point to order (mentioned them a half a billion times while ordering) weren't in the box or on the bill, so I spoke with Kevin the owner who said "Well I must have not heard that" and left it at that. Not even a "I'd be glad to get those shipped out to you, just give me your credit card info" or anything. Then I tried to use the trunk floor rear lip that I bought from them. I spent SIX HOURS chopping it up until it fit, only to find out NPD offered a different one that fit right. Their other parts weren't that great.

So, IMO their service leaves a little to be desired and their parts are the cheap junk.

I agree with 5.0. I'm not impressed with the parts I ordered.

I tried to install my new upper control arm shafts from Laurel Mountain and they don't fit. The stock shafts have a 4 3/4" bolt spacing. Laurel Mountain sent shafts with a 4 5/8" bolt spacing. They said all of theirs are 4 5/8", too bad so sad. Every other resource says it's 4 3/4". I can return them but they won't refund my shipping costs.

I would never buy from them again.

I buy from both Laurel Mountain and Mustangs Unlimited. I go into Laurel Mountain because they are about 60 miles from where I live. The only thing I have ever had a problem with is their own brand distributor to carburetor vacuum line. Other than that, I have had no problems. I have also never had any problems with Mustangs Unlimited. Their selection is great, their prices are nice, and the shipping is quick. I would gladly recommend both of them.

I got a gas tank from them for my '65. When it showed up the lip was bent badly out of shape and I had to spend an hour straightening it out again. (The box was in perfect condition so there's no way it happened in shipping) When I finally got to installing it none of the holes matched. That's been my only experience with them and I don't think I'll ever have the pleasure of another.

If you're looking for the cheaper Mustang parts I've had better luck with CJ Pony Parts.

LMM does not make their own tanks, they carry the sameones as everyone else...Did you call them on it?

No I didn't mention it to them. First off I ordered it nearly six months before I ever got around to installing it so there I can't imagine they could have done much anyway. Secondly, I didn't see it as enough of a problem to really ***** about it. Sometimes you need to make a part fit. Hell, I've used salvage parts from other 65's that the holes didn't line up so I guess I can't fault anyone too much.

In any case, the dinged up tank wasn't a terrible experience with me, it's just that I've had such great luck with CJ's that I think I'll continue ordering from them.
