Sadly I am in basic agreement with Dennis on this. I still use Moog parts, and they still seem to be of good quality, but I am not at all sure that they are actually any better than TRW or McQuay-Norris or other parts store brands. The one area that I think Moog is still ahead on are some of the rubber bushings especially the heavy duty problem solver strut rod bushings.



With the demise of several TRW group most now are consolidated, Dana, Spicer Trw Seal Power,etc,
The use of multible manufacturing thru the company has been terminated to say,and a lot now has been brought in over seas!
Moog cam to all of our stores removed several TRW boxes made them Moog, As well as A lot of our value branded line up !
I have seen this several times now, and it will continue,
Just so as you know a lot of the parts do use the same rubber,it just maybe black or blue, but same material made at the same plant,
