Parts manufacturers fiercely compete for the limited shelf space. Sometimes a part manufacturer will even agree to buy up all a chain store's existing inventory if the chain store agrees to switch to the part manufacturer's brand. The part manufacturer then is in the awkward position of owning a bunch of their competitors' parts. Many of those parts end up being "Wholesaler Closeout" parts at RockAuto.com. RockAuto customers benefit by getting access to name-brand Wholesaler Closeout parts for a fraction of the original price.

RockAuto.com now has an especially broad selection of Wholesaler Closeout ride control products by Gabriel. "Wholesaler Closeout" means these shocks & struts have prices that would have been considered fantastic forty years ago! You can find Gabriel Shock Absorbers, Struts and Strut / Coil Spring / Mount Assemblies in the “Suspension” category of the RockAuto.com catalog for whatever you drive.



To see a full list of all the Wholesaler Closeout parts available for your vehicle(s) that can probably all ship in the same box, click the RSS icon after selecting your vehicle’s engine size in the RockAuto.com catalog, and then click on the HTML icon next to "Love a Bargain?" As with all Wholesaler Closeouts, quantities are limited, so act fast!

 

This is not totally related to this thread, but I have question since I can't get through to anyone at RockAuto. What has happened to using your discount code? I just purchased $1000 worth of parts from RockAuto and used the 5% discount code. All I got was a window that popped up saying something like 'Thank you for tell other people about us'.

 

Hello,

We have not changed anything with our discount code program. Was the code entered correctly?

Thank You,
RockAuto.com

 

I entered it like I always do. I did a cut and paste on the discount code and it showed up in the invoice without a discount. That is when I went to rockauto.com and used the 'change the order' feature to make sure it was being used. I clicked on the code and saved it. That is when the window popped up 'thank you for telling other people about us', but still no discount was applied.

 

I just got a set of Gabriel shocks for 9$ a piece from rock auto, local part store wanted ~60$. I didn't even have to think about it.
