I am planning to buy front lower passenger and driver's side control arms for a 1995 Toyota 4-Runner and I got shipping quote of $54.83 by UPS 2nd day Air for them. Would the dealership stick their online quote even though both controls arms weigh alot?. Also did anyone ever purchase Toyota parts from?:

http://toyotaofhollywood.com

as right now they seem to have the cheapest prices on genuine OEM Toyota parts.

Here is breakdown of the parts I am planning to buy:

Toyota oil filter # 90915-YZZD1=$3.73, quantity:6
Toyota front lower driver's side control arm # 48069-35051=$171.21
Toyota front lower passenger side control arm # 48068-35051=$171.21
Toyota cotter pin # 90252-04002=$0.38, quantity:2

so subtotal:$365.56+$6 handling+ $54.83 (UPS 2nd day Air)=$426.39

I used to buy from Bob Bridge Toyota at http://www.1sttoyotaparts.com but they no longer hold the volume discount account so from all of the research I have done Toyota of Hollywwod, Florida seems to have the best prices presently. If anyone has place on cheaper control arms let me know as well does anyone have a source on RUST FREE SOUTHERN control arms that they would be willing to ship to Nova Scotia Canada by USPS (US Mail)?.. They are used on 2nd generation 4-Runners (1990-95) and 5th generation pickups (1989-95). If so send me an email at the below address in my signature.

I would rather buy parts from the Internet, and shipped by UPS instead of Dealership.

I believe that is what he is doing. The question is shipping costs.

Sidney, if you buy with a credit card, you can always dispute the claim if they overcharge you for shipping.

Doing Homework can save alot of money!
Example - Try buying OEM Catalytic converters from jaguar.

There's cheap parts on EBAY! ,but watch the shipping priece.

Oxygen sesnors - There's 1,2,and 4-wire, the only difference is the wire, conn, and cost.

1-wire is 1st gen (OBDI), 2-wire is 2nd gen, and 4-wire are Heated O2 sensors.
