New ones are great, they'll last foever if set up properly, but they are pretty expensive.
Used ones are a gamble...but you can get them for a song. |

Whatever you buy, it will not be cheap to have them set up if you can't do it yourself. It cost me $250 to have a 12 bolt for my Malibu set up, and I brought the rear and all the parts to the business.
