This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
In Denver, CO, Yoda Jim's scores 89/100: generally highly rated with standout service, a big Toyota/Lexus inventory, and knowledgeable help (Timber/Jim). Many found hard-to-source parts quickly, praised fair pricing and money-saving alternatives, and noted an organized yard. Caveats: you can’t self-pull, so waits for staff-pulled parts vary—calling ahead helps. Pricing can be high at times; a few reports cite mismatched parts, a price change on arrival, and a strict no-returns policy. Staff may feel watchful at first, but overall support is strong—bring check-parts diligence.
Great place to get all my parts for my 4runner!! Never been disappointed they always work with ya and help you out. Got my large skull sticker on the hood already!!!
I visited on a Saturday morning and was met by Tember who greeted me and asked what I was after. I needed a headlight switch and rear view mirror for my 3rd gen 4runner. He let me look around while he went and gathered his tools then we found a viable donor for the parts. I have to say I was amazed at the inventory they have there and equally amazed at the speed in which Tember got my parts pulled! It was a pleasure dealing with him and I recommend checking them out the next time you need parts for your Toyota truck or SUV.
Very wide and esoteric selection. Very reasonable prices and good deals on smaller things. Tons of fun things to sift through. They really have great staff who are helpful and experienced. Truly people that want your vehicle to keep running. What a nice place to spend an afternoon.
Timber is a good man sold me a distributor for a great price went above and beyond to make sure I was getting correct part
And let me choose what part I wanted from the hundreds that were there great man knows my culture and even went as far as implementing some island vibes into there yoda Jim's sticker
100% any and every Toyota part you can think of they have it
Forever a greatful customer to yoda
They are always rude when you call them it’s like they don’t want to be there .They are way over priced they are trying to get rich of used parts if you want good oem used Toyota parts go to Toyo pros in commerce city they have reasonable prices and extremely friendly people and service will never buy from Yoda Jim’s no wonder his wife left him and took his first junk yard from him
This is by far the best place to go for all your older Toyota truck part needs. They have the vast majority of their parts pre-pulled, organized, and ready to go for whenever you need it. I have found parts here for my 94 4runner that I couldn’t find anywhere else. I will definitely be coming back for more parts as I need them.
Most junk yards i go to dont have Toyota parts but this plave had the parts I needed for my 2007 4runner and everything you could think of for your old Toyotas. I will be coming back. 2 trips in 2 days and got things that came with an original truck and not aftermarket. Dude was friendly and ill be back
Great service from Yoda Jim’s! I’ve been here 3 times for 3rd Gen 4Runner interior parts for a restoration project. Every time I’ve come home with the right parts and they were removed with care. I highly recommend this business and thank you to Jim and Torque.
Nice people that just love cars and understand the pain and reward of working on them. Yard has tons of parts for my GX470 and for many other Toyota and Lexus models too. Can’t pull your own part so be mindful of how long it can take for a part to be pulled if it’s not already pulled and on the shelf. Best to call ahead to make sure they have what you need
Today I went to look for some stud bolts for my water pump on my 2006 Toyota Highlander. Jim told me that if I could wait 10 minutes he would be more than glad to look for these bolts it wasn’t a guarantee but he would look. He came with a couple of bolts that weren’t exactly a match but it would work, and then he told me that he had a big ass tub of other bolts that I can go through, and that I was more than welcome to have whatever I needed from the bolts at no charge. I found what I was looking for thank you very much. I now have a Toyota yard for all my yoda @ Yoda Jim’s
Tremendous place for old Toyotas. Met the new owner Timber and he was super friendly. Showed us around and pulled some parts for us. This place is a Mecca for Toyota owners. We will be back!
Been here is years past and they always had a great selection of parts. That being said, I'm very, very happy with the change of ownership and looking forward to doing way more business here! Keep it up!
Just wow. I can't believe the amazing service I received. My car had a flat outside of the business, I had multiple people and other companies attempting to help me, and no one would get it done until this amazing shop stepped in, went above and beyond and got me back on the road. He explained everything he was doing, why he was doing it, and really want above and beyond for me. I am in awe.
Had purchased parts prior from I guess his original yard, so I was very happy to find this yard after I knew the other one had closed down. I just needed a simple sun visor. They had exactly what I needed. The price was great. He even put it in real quick for me, I had intended to bring a screwdriver so I could have the new one in for my drive home but had forgotten, so it was a very appreciated gesture! I did not catch his name, but he was a great help! Thanks so much!
Really appreciated the professional attitude and courteous service I got from Tember at Yoda Jims. Tember was extremely knowledgeable about the inventory of Toyota Trucks and SUV's he had on his lot, which made it really easy and quick to deal with him on the CV Axles I needed for my 2nd generation Tacoma. If you're looking for those hard-to-find items for your Toyota Pickup or Toyota SUV you should consider Yoda Jims first, as they probably can save you lots of time and money, they did for me!!!
Make sure you check your parts. I asked for a 2004 toyota sequoia radiator core support. They said they had one. Picked it up and drilled it out. Turns out it was from a 2001- 04 toyota tundra. They are not compatible with the sequoia. They might look alike but not the same. Unfortunately it was after 30 days when i tried to put it in. Got all the way to the end but it didn't line up with the valance. Cost me 250. What a mistake dealing with these guys.
Yard man 'Timber' is great!
He generously spent time explaining the damage to my 02 Tacoma, recommendations and precautions which were so appreciated
He is the nicest fellow with the 'grooviest name' ! :)
Many thanks Timber You are the best !

Jim and his associate are good guys, running a junk yard dedicated to Toyotas. If you’re looking for specific Toyota parts this is a much better junkyard than the pick-a-parts around Denver and they have a much larger inventory than the other dedicated Toyota scrap yard in Denver. At first, they’re a little standoffish and will watch you like a hawk as you browse. It feels like they don’t want visitors but in reality they have had a lot of theft so they’re just trying to limit shrink. Once you get to know them they’re good people. As for parts, they have a huge inventory and it’s much easier to find parts here than elsewhere. Before I found Jim’s, I spent probably a dozen trips to LKQ trying to find specific parts as soon as a vehicle match arrived. What I couldn’t find there was readily available at Jim’s. As for pricing, it can be better than eBay for many parts and you can see the condition before purchase. For other parts, he was high but not outrageously priced if you’re in real need of a specific part. If you need Toyota parts, definitely stop by before wasting time elsewhere.
Said they were giving me 2 axles from the same truck.
After replacing the brakes and bearing I found it was 2 axles from 2 different trucks and incompatible.
They would not work with me on finding a replacement.
Don't go here if you want the correct parts or half decent customer service.
Have purchased 3 engines and mutilble other parts over the years, excellent folks, me and my company will continue to always use them on our Toyota builds. Actually quite thankful this place exists, these people know what they are talking about unlike other yards which you waist your time.
I picked up a brake booster for my gen 3 4Runner 2 hours ago and just installed it. They supplied me with a used part that works flawlessly at a fraction of the price of new. It's no surprise. Every time I go there I have great success. Thanks again guys!
Bought an 88k mile 3.4L engine. It was exactly what they said. Good price, runs great. Got my core charge back no problem. I will definitely be going back when I need parts. Friendly people, easy to deal with.
Loved these guys. They are awesome. They had what i needed & they didn't waste time.
However, because their office is deep inside their lot for the time being (May 2017) you may have to wait for someone to come around on a golf cart to help you, so be patient... eventually their office will be back close to entrance. (They told me the story of why...had to do with city ordinance). Their prices are good too. What a godsend!
I was looking for a cab for my damaged pickup, couldn't find one locally. Called up Jims and they had several. Took the drive from Arkansas to Denver and wasn't disappointed. When we arrived I was able to choose what I wanted and they had the cab stripped and pulled in 30 minutes. Since we took a long drive we decided to load up on a few other things, Jim was cool and let us wander the yard to browse, I was extremely impressed with there inventory and how they kept everything organized. All the employees were cool and got you what you needed if it required a tool to remove. His prices were fair and in some cases cheap and didn't gouge us like other yards in my area or online. I wish we had a yard like this closer to my area.
My most recent trip was excellent. I was met by a couple of guys on a golf cart, who gave me a ride to the parts and to the office to pay. Toyota trucks run best with original Toyota quality. If you can't find a good deal or the part at all, try Jim's.
