Behind the Scenes: The Dismantling and Preparation of Parts Before Sale

When you purchase a used car part at All Good Parts, you are not only receiving one that has been pulled out of a wrecked car. Each component is carefully dismantled, tested, cleaned and checked to be placed on our shelves.

Several customers and workshops are not aware of how much painstaking behind the scenes work takes place to ensure every part is safe, reliable and fit to install.

It is a tour of that whole process that will leave buyers with no doubt about the fact that a used choice is a smart and reliable one.

Vehicle Intake and Primary Evaluation

It starts as soon as an automobile arrives at the yard. All cars are marked with a make, model, VIN, engine code and transmission code to ascertain that correct cataloguing is done.

Although the vehicle may appear to be in very bad shape there are numerous parts which are in very good condition including engines, gearboxes, headlights, doors and interior modules.

This initial inspection assists in the identification of which items would be worth de-assembling and readying to resale.

Before Dismantling Safety Procedures

The vehicle is prepared in every way before any tools are applied. Draining of all the fluids such as engine oil, coolant, transmission fluids, brake fluids, fuel and power steering fluids is done to avoid hazards and also to preserve the environment.

Other delicate parts such as batteries, airbags, etc. are also handled carefully to prevent unintentional deployment or electrical hazards. It is after the vehicle has been safe that the process of dismantling starts.

The Dismantling is to be done carefully and strategically

The removal of parts is done in a well-organized order so that the technicians do not break connectors, wiring, clips or mounting points.

External parts, i.e., doors and bumpers are normally taken off initially then the interiors, i.e., dashboards, seats and infotainment units. In this order, mechanical components like engines, alternators and transmission are removed and lastly electrical modules and sensors are removed.

All the parts are labeled and kept in appropriate places in order to avoid damage.

Extensive Cleaning and Preparation

The only thing that is done before any component is taken to testing is to clean it.

The pressure washing, the use of the degreasing, and the careful hand-cleaning help to remove oil, dirt, dust and residue. It is simpler to inspect and diagnose clean parts, take photographs and any underlying cracks, leaks or damages become more apparent.

This phase is a guarantee that the technicians are able to appraise each of the components correctly.

Quality Inspection and Testing

The part is then taken through rigorous testing after cleaning. Mechanical parts are inspected on the compression levels, leaks and the overall functioning.

Gearboxes are evaluated with regard to shift-quality to allow smooth operation. Electrical components are scanned, bench-tested and wiring integrity checked, body panels are scanned to see the presence of dents, rust or mounting damages.

Only quality parts are sold at All Good Parts after careful inspection, those which do no pass the pass the inspection are never listed on our website or any other platform.

Structured Categorisation and Inventory Control

The accepted and approved parts are put into the inventory system, assigned a stock number and labeled with all the necessary information, including engine code, model year or variant.

They are then placed in organised shelves or racks so that whenever orders are received, they are easily retrieved with accurate cataloguing being a key factor in ensuring fast and efficient customer service.

Before Delivery Professional Packaging

A part before shipping or collecting is safely packaged

 Challenges in wrapping Fragile products such as lights and mirrors are packaged, engines and gearboxes are tied to pallets, body panelling is covered with foam, as well as electrical modules, which are covered with anti-static wrapping.

This cautious packaging will ensure that the part is received in the same state that it was in the warehouse.

Final Inspection and Dispatch

An inspection is done before dispatch, a final one. The staff ensure the matching of the part with the order, check engine or transmission codes, confirmation of the variant, and the condition as was posted on the website.

The warranty details are appended and it is only at this point that the part is given the green light to either be shipped or picked up.
