Just swapped out all three relays today because my fuel pump relay (stock) went out,replaced with relays from autozone.My question,are the relays from AZ more reliable,has anyone had them go out also.thanks.

None of my stock relays went bad, but I replaced all three of mine with Autozone ones also, mainly just for the peace of mind and to have the stock ones as spares. I don't know that the Autozone ones are any better, but they do have a lifetime guarantee. I think that is why a lot of people get them. I haven't heard of anyone having trouble with them, but I'm sure it's a possibility, otherwise the lifetime guarantee would not mean as much.

I bought NAPA relays with the thought that they would be better and low and behold a brand new one was bad after about 15 minutes of riding! Got a replacement (NAPA again) and no problems since so ya never know I guess.

No different, likely made in the same factory anyways

Search RELAY lol, we had a huge relay shootout and I went and got every different brand I could find and put the results on here.

autozone ones are no better, but for 10 bucks and a lifetime warranty you cant go wrong, buy 2 more of them and carry them with you so if one goes out you can swap during the ride then return it for a new one when you get home
