Advance carries moog too. If they actually have it instock ordering online for pickup with a coupon might be cheaper than NAPA.

Re: MOOG Susp. Parts in SO. CAL. ?
Almost any place will be cheaper than NAPA but , they do have better quality stuff and they have WAY more parts than the rest of the places .
My local NAPA Store is an older one and I made good friends with the Counter Guys decades ago so I am allowed to go into the back and poke around in the boxes and drawers of stuff to find what I need when chasing problems , I can match up coolant hoses my own self , so on and so forth . Now , I am looking for Urethane cab mounts.... I found the kit with GM O.E.M. bushings but I'd rather use Polyurethane if I can . I REALLY APPRECIATE all the help and collected wisdom I find here ~ I'm just a mechanic but you alls work on these particular rigs all the time and so often have the Hot Ticket on what parts or Vendors to use .

Re: MOOG Susp. Parts in SO. CAL. ?
I bought brand new Moog upper, lower and tie rods for my 70 Stepside before I realized the previous owner updated the front suspension. They are all brand new if you are interested in them and if you have not already bought some.

No Advanced on the west coast, at least not yet as they have bought out Car Quest and will be converting over the next few years.

Amazon or Rockauto if you can wait, I have been working on my S10 the last few months and they are by far the cheapest I have found.

I used parts master from star auto. Exact same thing as Moog, I compared them side by side. Made in USA and about 1/3 the cost.
