Celebrating The First Anniversary of Our Online Presence

Syd's Eastside Auto Parts, Used Cars & Rebuilders has now been online at http://www.SydsAutoParts.com for over a year. Our website has grown and expanded with our business.

Syd's Eastside Auto Parts, Used Cars & Rebuilders had previously been online for 8 months or so prior with a packaged website that allowed visitors to search our inventory, but didn't allow e-commerce and wasn't customizable. Interest in our auto parts offerings quickly grew and that's why we created our own custom professional website with full search capabilities cross indexed for interchangeable parts and full, secure e-commerce capabilities.

In the past year we have added website functionality and expanded our business:

1. Added licensed Hollander Interchange cross-indexing to show all available interchangeable parts across makes, models and years in our Online Auto Parts Search Results.
2. Continued to keep and maintain an up-to-date catalog of our available Used Cars and Trucks For Sale offers online through the website.
3. Added E-Commerce functionality with a secure Shopping Cart for online auto parts shopping.
4. Offered New Aftermarket Auto Parts through our toll-free ordering service.
5. Added a Featured Parts & Products Showcase to allow us to highlight some of our available tools and products, as well as showcase our new and used auto parts.
6. Expanded our business to offer Aftermarket Caterpillar Diesel Engine Parts.
7. Added a section for our Heavy Equipment & Machinery offerings.

Remember that we are no longer just a salvage yard and now offer new aftermarket automotive parts and aftermarket Caterpillar diesel parts.

We look to further expand our product and service lines further to better accomodate our customers in the future. We certainly hope that you will be pleased with the results.

Thanks to our customers and suppliers for our past and continued success!

IPD is a global manufacturing, engineering and distribution company providing quality components for heavy-duty equipment. IPD focuses on helping equipment owners save money without risk to reliability. IPD has been the standard for heavy equipment component quality, innovation and support since 1955.

Many of these aftermarket parts exceed the Caterpillar original manufacturer's specifications, so although these parts may cost less, they often introduce better reliability over original equipment parts.

IPD parts innovation includes:

• Grooved connecting rod bearings for use in Caterpillar 3400 series engines which help reduce cavitation and extend bearing life.
• Crevice seal style liners for Caterpillar 3400 series engines which can help reduce the amount of cylinder liner movement and o-ring failure in these applications.
• When mechanics complained of excessive blow-by in 3208 Caterpillar engines, IPD developed the first 3-ring pistons with dual ni-resist inserts for this application.
• IPD was one of the first companies to offer Induction Hardened Cylinder Liners for use in Caterpillar engine applications.
