What Kind of Salvage Yard Are We?

Vehicle Types and Popular Auto Parts

Our inventory at Guaranteed Auto & Truck Parts in Okeechobee, FL, is always changing, but we focus on providing a good selection of used auto and truck parts. We're often getting in different types of used cars and trucks, including some rebuildable vehicles. While we don't list every single make and model (that would be a lot of typing!), we aim to cover a broad range.

When it comes to what people often come looking for, some parts just fly off the shelves. Here's a quick look at what's usually in high demand:

Popular Part Category	Why It's Popular	Benefits of Buying Used
Engines & Transmissions	These are the heart and soul of your vehicle. Replacing them new can cost an arm and a leg, making quality used ones a smart move for your wallet.	Significant cost-effectiveness compared to new, often readily available, and can extend the life of your old car or truck. Learn more about buying used transmissions.
Body Panels & Bumpers	Oops! A little fender bender? These parts often get damaged, and buying used saves a bunch compared to brand-new replacements.	Helps restore vehicle appearance and safety affordably. Check out how to find OEM bumpers for trucks at junkyards.
Alternators & Starters	Crucial for your car‘s electrical system. When they go bad, your ride won't start. Used ones offer a budget-friendly fix.	Get your car starting again without breaking the bank. See our guide on quality used alternators.
Headlights, Taillights & Side Mirrors	Another common casualty of parking lot mishaps or minor collisions. Replacing these new can add up fast.	Essential for safe driving and passing inspection, affordable when sourced used. Don't forget to check out used side view mirrors.
Rims & Wheels	Whether you bent one on a pothole or just want to upgrade your look, used wheels and rims are a great option.	Improve aesthetics or replace damaged components at a fraction of new pricing.

Our Inventory System and Finding Your Part

While we don't have a public online inventory to browse through (because hey, we're busy out there getting those parts for you!), our team uses an internal system to help you find the part you need. We're especially proud of our free hard-to-find parts locator service. If we don't have it on site, we can tap into our network to try and track it down for you. It's like having a treasure map for car parts!

When it comes to compatibility, our experienced staff can often help with part identification and cross-referencing part numbers to ensure you get a functionally identical replacement, even if the exact OEM number isn't a perfect match. This ensures you get a quality part that fits.

Used Auto Parts Warranty

We stand by the quality used parts we sell. That's why Guaranteed Auto & Truck Parts Inc. offers a standard 90-day warranty on most used parts, unless we tell you otherwise. This gives you peace of mind that you're getting a reliable component for your vehicle. While we don't have specific details on extended warranty options readily available, it's always a good idea to chat with our team when you're buying a part – they can give you the lowdown on any additional options or specific warranty details for your purchase.

Getting a warranty on used auto parts is a big deal, and it's something you should always look for. It helps protect your investment and makes sure you're not stuck with a lemon.

Selling Your Junk Car for Cash

Got an old car or truck that's seen better days? Instead of letting it rust away in your yard, why not turn it into some cash? Guaranteed Auto & Truck Parts Inc. is keen to buy junk cars! We offer competitive rates for your unwanted vehicles, regardless of their condition. It's a great way to save money and also contribute to responsible vehicle recycling.
