Why DIYers Can’t Miss These 3 Great Parts and Tools Auctions From Feb. 20-28
Parts and tool auctions can be a great way for intermediate or advanced DIY off-road enthusiasts to pick up parts, tools and kit for their vehicles at great value. Here are three auctions DIYers need to check out.
When companies or businesses close their doors after years of service, their inventories are auctioned off. In business since 1970, James G Murphy Auction House has a trio of liquidation auctions coming up that DIYers of all strengths are going to want to check out. The auction house has a history of successful auctions — over 100 in a year — ranging from single consignment to full liquidation auctions. Many of their auctions are open to online bidding, while some are only available to online bidders.
Auction 1: Olympic 4×4 Liquidation
Olympic 4×4 supply is closing their doors after 40 years of service. This means everything in their shop is being liquidated by auction. If you’re looking to expand your selection of tools, or you have a workshop that needs kitting out, this is your auction. All the tools and equipment used by Olympic 4×4 are available to online bidding. Owners looking for vintage Jeep parts should take notice of the parts-car collection on the auction block. This is an impressive collection that no serious Jeep or off-road enthusiast is going to want to pass up.
Auction 2: Suspension and Drivetrain
Up next is parts; all the parts you might need to get an off-road vehicle ready to hit the trails in the new year. This second auction has a long list of new suspension and drivetrain-related parts. Owners can find a selection of brand name covers, diff covers, front and rear coils, seats and more. Make sure to know what fits your vehicle before hitting the auction, so you can bid on the parts that fit. Getting the right parts will save you a headache later when installing the kit or part. There won’t be any installation support for parts or kits from the auction, but you should find a lot of great resources online.
Auction 3: General Inventory for DIYers
Rounding out the liquidation auctions is a third auction with much of the general inventory. DIY’ers of all stripes will want to check out what’s on offer here, because many of these parts and supplies could be useful outside of the off-roading world. The general inventory includes common parts you’d find at any parts store, including brake rotors, headlight bulbs, accessories and towing equipment. But tthere arealso some things you might not find at any parts store, like speaker bars and hard doors.
Off-road enthusiasts on the hunt for parts they need for their next DIY project will find liquidation auctions to be a great place to find top-quality and great value. These three auctions hosted by James G. Murphy could be your chance to grab name-brand parts for a low price. Because Olympic 4×4 Supply was in business for four decades, there is a lot of popular inventory up for grabs. Set your browser bookmarks and put a reminder in your calendar for February 21st, you don’t miss out on some of these great buys.
