Brothers Auto Parts is a self-service auto salvage yard in Indianapolis that sells used auto parts to DIYers and professionals. Open since 1932, the yard stocks parts from late-model cars to classics, organized by make, model, and year. Customers browse the lot on their own without any sales pressure. The staff can also check their network of other salvage yards to track down hard-to-find parts. Prices stay competitive, and reviews mention helpful staff.

What to Expect

Brothers Auto Parts is a self-service yard, meaning you walk the lot and pull parts yourself. The inventory includes engines, transmissions, body panels, interior parts, and more from a range of vehicle years. Parts are sorted by make, model, and year to make searching easier.

If you need a part that isn’t on-site, the staff can check their network of other salvage yards. This helps with rare or discontinued parts. The yard also sells scrap metal and other automotive materials.

Bring your own tools to remove parts and a way to haul them away. The yard doesn’t offer part removal, so you’ll need to do the work yourself. Payment is made at checkout, with prices set per part.

I stop by this place all the time for hard-to-find parts for my repair shop. Tennessee, the salesperson, is the reason I keep coming back. She actually *listens*—asks the right questions, figures out what I really need, and doesn’t just throw parts at me. She’ll dig up a few different options that fit what I’m looking for *and* what I can afford. Makes my job a lot easier. ---

I’ve been buying parts from the brothers here for 15 years. But after this last mess, I’m done. They’ve gone from decent to downright rude and unprofessional. They don’t care about customers anymore—just want to get you in and out. Not worth the hassle. I’ll take my business somewhere else.

This junkyard used to be alright, back before Fenix took over. Now? Forget it. You can’t even get a human on the phone half the time. If you *do* manage to talk to someone, they either hang up or dump you into voicemail where no one bothers answering. Wasted $15 on the wrong parts because of it. And don’t get me started on the "customer service." You’re not talking to someone local—it’s just some random person stuck working from home who clearly doesn’t know what they’re doing. Sat on hold for 20 minutes just to get nowhere. Next time, I’m taking my business elsewhere. No question. ---

Honestly, I don’t usually bother leaving reviews, but this place made me break my own rule. First, it took forever just to get someone on the phone. When I finally did, they said they had the part I needed—actually, they said they had *two* options. I asked if I could match my current one to make sure I got the right fit, and they said sure, no problem. I even mentioned I’m not in town often and might not know until the last minute if I could swing by, plus I live pretty far away. They brushed it off like it was nothing. A week later, I managed to make the trip during their weird hours—four hours round trip, $30 in gas—and walked in to hear, *"Oh, the parts aren’t here. They’re at another location, a whole state over."* Then they hit me with, *"We wouldn’t have pulled it for you today anyway."* I pointed out how far I’d driven, how we’d talked about this last week, and they didn’t even say sorry. Not a single *"my bad,"* not even a *"sorry for the mix-up."* Nothing. If they expected me to just *know* they don’t pull parts same-day or that they’d lie about having something in stock, they’re clueless. And if they thought I wouldn’t leave a review after this? Please. The only reason I’m giving them one star is because no one was outright rude. But I’d rather drive twice as far to avoid this place again. ---

Tennessee is a lifesaver. I was hunting everywhere for a turn signal switch—every other place wanted $300+ just for the switch. She found me a whole new column for under $100. I could’ve kissed her. Seriously, thank you, Tennessee. You’re the best. ---
