Ha...some of y'all were freaking out thinking I was actually talking about a DEALERSHIP. Here's the story: It's Friday afternoon, a little after 5:00p.m. I need a power steering hose (pump to box) and a carrier w/ cross shaft and spider gears for the rear diff. Only problem is that I have to have them INSTALLED by Sunday morning. Great Basin Rovers and British Pacific to the rescue! I didn't remember GBR's phone number...well, Steve at Rovertym was more than willing to help me find it. Bill at GBR was more than helpful, and walked me through everything I needed with the carrier, etc. He promised that I would have the parts by Saturday, no matter what. He didn't have the p.s. hose available, but recommended British Pacific. Marty with BP was equally willing to help, and also arranged for an overnight (AND Saturday) delivery for the hose. I don't know much about overnight shipping, but I was expecting to have the parts sometime late this afternoon...WRONG! Both boxes were on my doorstep by 9:15 this morning. I even got some great stickers from both companies. Steve, Marty, Bill, thank you guys so much for helping me out--I'll let you know how things go. To all you DWebbers out there...these guys are the type of people that make owning a Rover worth all the trouble. Thanks again! |

Can't recall BP's URL right off, but it is listed in the resources section under vendors, along with all the other places mentioned. I haven't yet done buisness with the other places mentioned, but I agree that British Pacific is a class act. -Reed |

Yeah, British Pacific are great. I bought my ARB and lights from them, and Marty was always very patient and helpful. |
