I sold Auto parts from 1985 till 1998. During those days, the ONLY suspension components to use were Moog. I worked for an independent non chain store. We carried all the best lines. There weren't many cheaper brands back then. We took on a cheaper line of suspension parts. My boss wasn't happy the us sales guys didn't try to push the cheaper line...he had a friend come in the store, needed a tie rod end, I believe for a ford  h talked his buddy into buying the cheap parts, likely to prove a point to the rest of us......end of story??? nooo...3 weeks later his fellow geeezer buddy is back. He's got the cheapo tie rod end, in his hand. It's wore out worse than the original part that likely had 100,000 miles plus. He was VERY unhappy!!! I don't know what all brands of suspension parts are available these days. I think some of the Moog IS made in China...? O'Reillys carries a brand called, Precicion. Precision was a brand from the Moog line. Precicion was their U joint brand name, same high quality as Moog. I completely rebuilt the front end of my buddies 1971 C-10, this Christmas past. I believe the Precision front to be very good stuff... This is all I know, be cautious buying suspension parts!!! |
