Established in 1977, 4Wheel Drive Hardware (4WD) is the leading mail order and Internet distributor of Jeep parts and accessories. As a division of Transamerican Auto Parts, 4WD is headquartered in Columbiana, Ohio.
In January of 1977, Tom Kennedy, the founder of 4WD, conceived the idea for his company out of his own need for Jeep parts and accessories. Tom was a "Jeeper" himself and frequently needed quality replacement Jeep parts that were often hard to find. His search for good suppliers resulted in the creation of 4WD. Born out of what started in his two-car garage more than 30 years ago, 4Wheel Drive Hardware continues to service the "Jeepers" of the world, in the spirit Tom was inspired by many years ago!
