Probably a stupid question but just wondering what are you guys doing with the oem parts you pull off your rides?
I have a sway bars, spindles, manifolds, catalyst conveters, y-pipe, springs, etc...etc..etc....sitting in my garage. Wondering if I should trash or what? Truth is they will probably never go back on.
Looking to clean up the mess..

Call your local scrap guy and give it to him. I usually put it out on the curb, and it's gone within an hour.

a lot of it I keep, because when I get rid of the vehicle, I'll return most of it to stock. If you buy parts used (like upgraded sway bars, suspension, etc) then you can usually get just about what you paid for it.

If for some reason the vehicle sells as is with all the upgrades on it, then I'll offer them for sale on here and on Craigslist, and if they don't sell they get thrown away.

Thxs. for the opinions.
I usually keep things for just in case but this is the longest I have owned a vehicle. I hit 10yrs with My Tahoe this month. I just don't see storing the items anymore. I think I might go ahead and trash. I've been wanting to clean up the garage it's becoming a bit cluttered.

You could try to sell online or the classifieds here. Someone is bound to be looking for used oem parts.
