Kody told viewers, “It doesn’t matter where you get your parts.”
He said he recently bought a CV axle from an AutoZone store and the same part from an O’Reilly Auto Parts store.

Kody pointed out that there was a $40 price difference, even though both products were exactly the same.
He said, “You see that? Same manufacturer stamp.”
In the video’s caption, Kody wrote, “It doesn’t matter where you buy your parts most of the time. It’s just a different box from the same manufacturer.”
