newb looking for parts

jpfaut01 · 6-3-07, 15:32

i just picked up a 91 mx6 as a beater and i need to replace some parts. i could really use new front struts, strut mount bearings, half shafts, and brake pads. could you point me in the right direction of some mazda specific sites that offer these goods. i'm not used to not having a widely available aftermarket and these old mazda's seem to be the forgotten step child of the aftermarket world. please help me out with some sites other than jegs, tirerack, autozone, etc. i'm just trying to compile as many prices as i can. thanks

ps can i even just buy the strut mount bearings or do i need new mounts as well

I'll pass on telling you to search...but look for rockauto and carmadillo.com

jpfaut01 · 6-3-07, 21:01

i'll check em out, thanks. by the way i hate forum searches, all the forums i belong to have the most useless and vague search features i have ever seen. i need answers not wasted time searching other peoples threads, but maybe this forum is different, who knows

**Zach** · 6-3-07, 21:06

maybe it's the way you're searching. the search tool here is good.

Not sure about your what 91 you have - turbo/na MTX/ATX

I have the following up for sale

2 new front strut mounts with bearings 50

2 new reman front calipers 50 - loaded with brake pads

I can get some AXXIS pads for front and rear.

I am out of rear calipers loaded but can get a set for around 110

I got a complete turbo axle but can get most of the others

I gan get most aftermarket struts like gabriel or can get oem Ford non AAS for 50 each. Gabriels would be around 40 each

2 new front wheel bearings 40

Shipping except for the struts would be cheap as all of the rest will fit in some flat rate boxes.

You can check my sellar feedback or ask around about the parts I sell and my feedback.

thanks but i'd rather not deal with too many shipping costs if i don't have to. i'm gonna search local first, but if i can't find what i want, i'll contact you.
by the way, what are your opinions on the gabriel shocks? i currently have a five year old set on the car, but i figured they would not be suited with my springs (intrax). i'm not looking for too much performance, just reliability and some longevity.

ps. car is an LS model

jpfaut01 · 6-3-07, 21:59

btw- what is the chassis and engine code for a 91 lx.

**allmazda** · 6-3-07, 22:05

I sure you can find what you are looking for local. If you compare what I have with local prices I will beat them including shipping.

The front mounts are 130 a set at autozone

AutoZone.com | Vehicle Selection - Year

Mine are 50 a set. No tax. Shipping on the mounts would be $9.00

In my book that is a $70 savings without adding in taxes.

Front loaded calipers- new pads, sliders, hardware at Autozone are 98 each side. Mine for both would be 60 Shipped. That is right and left loaded reman calipers = $60 shipped. Unloaded calipers are 38 each at autozone.

You can not beat my prices.

don't be so smug...allmazda is one of THE BEST sellers here.

Everything is no hassle. Also like he said, his prices (inc shipping) beat what you can find at your local vato zone and are better quality. Take for example; I purchased a waterpump for $45 shipped to my door a few weeks ago from him, and took only three days to get here.

/end thread.

**jphillips626** · 6-6-07, 8:12

you said you have an ls beater??? I hope you are mistaken and really have an lx. Doesn't sound like you have leather....pics?

Allmazda is the best i have bought tons of quality parts from him, shipping ain't like trying to drive around...gas prices

I have two brand new never installed lx (n/a) axles. I intended to replace the cv's in my gf 's car then she crashed it before i got to install them. If you want both of them i will cut you a sweet deal like $50 plus shipping or less.

He's a 20 year old n00b who joined in June 07 with what he refers to as a beater. He's likely not going to stick around for long and is only interested in his own interest.

end thread.
