Thanks leddzepp -- you rock
Did some research and found that Partsmaster is sold at Bumper to Bumper affiliated parts stores. Found one located near me. Just a parts counter w/ warehouse, deals mainly with auto repair shops.
Purchased a Partsmaster/Moog K680 upper ball joint for $43 -- straight Moog was $79. Previously, best price I could find for the Moog bj was $66 plus shipping at Rockauto and $58 free shipping at Amazon.
As always, your mileage may vary.
Anyway, I'm gonna go pickup the part tomorrow A.M. bring it home and compare it to the Moog I have on hand.
