Automotive aftermarket parts refer to the secondary market of the automotive industry. This includes the manufacturing, distribution, retailing, and installation of vehicle parts, chemicals, equipment, and accessories after the sale of the automobile by the original equipment manufacturer (or OEM) to the consumer. These parts and accessories may not be manufactured by the OEM.
While aftermarket parts are most frequently used in repairs and replacements, there are good reasons to use aftermarket parts for other uses as well, especially in trucks. In this blog, we’ll break down a few reasons why you might want to consider aftermarket parts for your truck.
Firstly, aftermarket parts are typically much less expensive than OEM parts. Part of this is because an aftermarket maker doesn’t need to protect a brand name with higher prices. Aftermarket producers also typically handle manufacturing overseas, and with less stringent guidelines, both of which help lower costs.
Even though they don’t have to adhere to the same guidelines and standards as the OEM, aftermarket producers can still make high quality parts. A lot of aftermarket companies will simply reverse engineer a part from the original manufacturer. Doing so lets them learn about the problems that the brand maker wasn’t aware of at the time of production and lets them solve these weaknesses in their own production.
Aftermarket parts inherently come with more options for the truck owner as well. Rather than one OEM making one part for one role, several different companies can make the same type of product, giving the consumer greater variety in choices and how they fulfill their needs.
However, purchasing aftermarket parts comes with drawbacks as well. Unscrupulous manufacturers can cut corners in production resulting in substandard parts and trying to source parts from companies other than the OEM can be frustrating and confusing. Working with a trusted distributor who sources only from reputable companies can easily erase these headaches, however.
