Practical Questions
Questions parts distributors actually ask first
A practical sourcing guide for buyers who need confirmed parts, replacement supply and regular replenishment.
01How do I confirm whether a part fits my vehicle?+
Send the part photo, vehicle photo, mounting size, voltage or power rating, and any old label. Compatibility is checked before quoting because similar-looking parts can have different dimensions or electrical ratings.
02What information should I send for a parts RFQ?+
Part name, photo, dimensions, voltage or power, quantity, destination, packing preference and target vehicle type. If you have a sample, mention whether you want exact replacement or compatible alternative.
03Which parts should a new distributor stock first?+
Start with fast-moving service items: controllers, brake parts, lighting, switches, accelerators, rear axle service parts and common suspension components.
04Can I mix different parts in one shipment?+
Yes. Mixed cartons and container loads are more realistic for parts buyers. The packing list should group parts by system and show quantity, carton count and gross weight.
05When does a complete vehicle page matter?+
When the buyer is sourcing a finished vehicle, start from the complete vehicle page and quote the model, route, quantity and OEM notes. When the buyer is sourcing parts, vehicle information is used only to confirm fitment.
06How do samples work?+
For uncertain compatibility, sample confirmation is safer than buying a large batch. Send target quantity and the final market so the sample can match the future bulk order.
