Who should I order my Suspension kit from? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jsbgump · 05-04-2006, 11:37 AM

I am going to order my lowering kit in a day or two. Who should I use? ECE or CPP? Or someone else? I like what I see from ECE but is CPP any better? Just looking for some opinions. All help will be appreciated.

ECE, everytime. Great bunch of guys.

JustLiveIt · 05-04-2006, 12:23 PM

ECE is great! My only complaint is I wish they carried more stuff so I would not have to order from anywhere else!

Ok that statement is a little extreme. There are other great vendors it's just that ECE is close to me and very helpful.

between the 2. ECE they are better orignized. cpp will have you on hold for atleast 30min for anything. i ordered my front/rear brake kit from them ( along with many other things) and all the stuff didnt come in. so i called (again waited for 40min) to find out they were back ordered. back order came in and it was missing the rear calipers called again, waited 30min to find out those were on back order too..... there customer service sucks

ECE called ME to tell me that my shock relocation brackets were late coming back from the powder coater and gave me a new delivery date. The parts were delivered when they said they would be.

Have not had a bad experience yet.

Very happy with all parts from ECE...spindles, sway bar brackets, etc.

jsbgump · 05-04-2006, 04:55 PM

Well that says it all ECE for me. Now who wants to front the bill?

jsbgump · 05-04-2006, 05:58 PM

That's good to know. Is anyone aware about sources in Canada? The shipping and brokerage fees can be expensive.
