Bothwell ont | WE have bought lots of parts from there combine to planter parts I would say there quality is as good as OEM |

|
northwest missouri | I would say their parts are equal or better than OEM, great to deal with, buy with confidence. I ordered a set of combine chopper knives from them a few years back - when they arrived they were slightly varying lengths so I called and wanted to return them - the salesman said no problem but suggested that I weigh them on a gram scale for balance which I did and also weighed some OEM knives - all the Shoup knives were very close to same weight, but the OEM knives varied widely in weight. Called him back and thanked him and returned the few OEM knives I had on hand. |

Flora IL | I agree as well...they have good quality parts |
|

|
DE | as far as gathering chains, shoup sells Drives chains same as oem case ih. I've had very good experiences with their planter and corn head parts. Their corn head skid shoes are thicker, last longer and are less expensive. Good people to deal with,. will take returns no problem. they will pay for return shipping if there is a problem with an item and will issue ups pickup at your location. can't beat that. |

| Decent parts generally, but their fanciest field cultivator shovels are badly designed if you want them to cut off wild mustard in the spring. Most of the front edge is blunt. Half an hour one each shovel with a grinder can wear them so they cut.

| Shoup parts are top notch. Been getting stuff from them for years. Their shipping department, however is another story. Apparently Jose and Manual can't read part numbers. I have had trouble with 5 out of the last 6 orders because they either sent the wrong parts, or in 2 cases, I had half of someone elses order. They straightened it out without any trouble, but double check EVERYTHING as soon as it comes. My only other complaint is they only ship UPS, so it takes longer, no Saturday delivery, and they are paying more. |

ECIL | I am a little spoiled because I only live about 30 min from Shoup's butI get most of my parst from them and I think they are equal to if not better than OEM for less money. BTW I've never seen Jose or Manuel packing parts, only Paul or Tom |

| We've had very good luck with their parts and lately we've been getting parts the day after we order them with standard shipping. If your neighbor has a 1000 series or older IH head tell him to get the lower gathering chain sprockets for a JD head as they have a much better bearing design than the IH sprockets but are direct bolt on replacements and are even the same price. |

|
| As said above: buy with confidence. |

Northeast Louisiana | Been ordering from Shoup for years! I think its as good or better the the oem. Belts, corn and bean header parts, combine augers, chains and planter parts has all been great for me. Much cheaper than the red store. |
|

|
Reading Mn | last 2 times they shipped by Speedy to me |
|

|
Lenawee Co Michigan | I'm just guessing here, but I'll betcha most parts from Shoup come out of the same factory that supplies parts for the brand names. I've seen no difference in quality whatsoever. The brand name dealers just aren't as efficient at marketing the parts and have to charge more. |
|

|
Near Richmond, IN | I think you're right as I've bought in the past, parts that had the Case-IH (or IH, I can't remember which it was) logo on them. Same as the OEM parts. I've never had any problems with Shoup. |
|
| |
|
Texas | I buy regularly from them with no problems. Parts are as good as OEM. |
|
| |
|
Aurora, NC | Been good to us for years. Last order was mixed up sent wrong sweeps but could use them. Have gotten gathering chains with JD on them. |
|
| |
|
Panhandle of Texas | A few years ago I ~completely~ rebuilt my JD 853A row head...I mean everything but the sheet metal! I got it all from Shoup, and was very happy. I was a bit leary of their gathering chains for some reason, but when I got them, they looked identical to JD's, and cost a lot less. I have used Shoup for a lot of other stuff, but you probably know that to completely rebuild a row head is a good little chunk of change..I continue to be impressed by them. |

|
| I have bought lots of parts at Shoup and their quality is good. JD, CNH, and Gleaner parts. No problems here. Jim J |

Soutwest Ks. | The last time I replaced snapping rolls on my 843 JD cornhead I put 4 rows with OEM and 4 rows Shoup. I have ran them two seasons side by side, no difference that we can tell. I would concur with the opinion that they sell good quality parts. It's rather rare anymore to hear as much good about a company as was reported here. They must be doing something right!!!! |
|
| |
|
| Must be what you order. I bought a couple replacement battery boxes about 4 years ago from them for a 4020 & I had to rework them to get them to even mount on the tractor. I've boughten other parts from them & gotten good stuff. |
|
| |
|
Panhandle of Texas | Yeah, I know what you mean. I bought the chrome looking "John Deere" emblem for the side of my JD 4020, and one of the little studs was in the wrong place. That was quite a mess. I should have just sent it back, but my "oh, I can fix this" attitude got the best of me, and I just had to start fiddling with it.... What I've had really good luck with is bearing, chains, seed tubes, gathering belts, knives, chopper parts, etc. One more thing: just recently I bought, from Shoup, a monitor caddy for my JD 8410. It was about 1/2 price of JD, and looked pretty much identical...I say "pretty much" because Shoup's had a little tray (very nice btw) made on it that JD's did not have... I wish there were more companies like Shoup!! |

|
| ive bought over $15,000 in parts from them in the past year or so and have no regrets. thier Deere Air drill boots are great |
|
| |
|
| "I wish there were more companies like Shoup!!" I'll agree with that. Good parts at fair prices and knowledgeable people answer the phone.
One of my favorite things is free shipping on orders over $200.

NW Iowa. / SW Arizona | I've used Shoup & have only one complaint. I ordered some belts for my combine last year & in the book it says they sale Good Year belts but when the belts came they were some brand I had never heard of. I called them & asked where they were made & the guy said China. I sent them back & went to JD & put theirs on instead. I will still continue to buy from them but not China belts. |
|

|
SW Minnesota | I agree with all of the above complements. I have to wonder if John Deere and the others have Shoup in their equation when they close stores. The only two things about Shoup is the less common parts aren't available and you get get the parts in an hour. |
|
| |
|
| Ditto the no "Jose" packing parts. They do have decent help. The counter help is great. Just rebuilt a planter with parts from there this spring and no problems. In fact their JD 7000 closing wheel seems like its built better than the JD plastic style.
Also rebuilt (chains/sprockets/other misc) a 1063 cornhead from their part either. The top sprocket is universal to 800/900 cornheads and had a pin/key for either so if you have both heads you can keep one sprocket.
Also like Cliff says use the JD style idler. They are all steel and don't have the plastic insert. |

| I was pointed to Shoup by a Deere parts counter guy. Years ago.
