OE Air Conditioning HP Hose
October 25, 2024

The search was on when it was found my OE AC System on my 1972 El Camino had been fitted with a HP AC Line missing the "gauge set port" for proper system maintenance on the expansion valve side.
Ecklers had the correct OEM Part at a fair price and in stock. Quick shipping helped get my AC System ready for a full vacuum and leak check prior to system charge.

Shift Indicator Cable
October 24, 2024

Needed a shift indicator cable for my 69 El Camino, but no one makes it. This earlier cable will have to do if I can cut it down in size and secure it.

Hey Shawn,

I'm sorry I missed you I just left you a voicemail verifying that you did receive your entire order and aren't missing any items. I do see you spoke to customer service on 10/14 and they provided you with a delivery date for the rest of your order of 10/15 and that has past. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly if you need further assistance with this order.

Thank you,
Allison EXT 1896

Hit or Miss
October 22, 2024

Prices generally higher than competitors.

Borderline deceptive business practices. From last order received, online pictures of product ******* shows 3 bolts with oversized washers and description stated stainless steel. Ordered 3 sets, but only received 3 bolts with standard washers, different length bolts, not stainless steel, and each bolt/washer set had the part number listed on the website.

What was sent I can get at Lowe's or Home Depot for a third of the cost without shipping.

Most frustrating is the fact that I needed what I thought I was getting to move my project along and now I have to wait until I can get the correct parts, most likely from one of your competitors.

And it's not the first time it's happened but this time I wasn't going to let it slide.

Part was not as described
October 22, 2024

I ordered an air duct blower hole cover for a 1957 Chevy and I received a Heater Blower hole cover.
The air duct hole is approximately 1 in larger so the part is mislabeled depending on interpretation.
