Moog is very good & I heard that Spicers top of the line was also but that is a heck of a price differential.

Since bringing in the Spicer Professional Series line over a year ago, the response has been excellent. My website will be ready shortly, but you can see ALL of the Spicer rebuild packages in my eBay Store. eBay User ID bremotorsports. Then go to Group 2 Suspension Front.

I priced it locally and online at Rock Auto and checked out a lot of the "Packages" offered in the mags and online. I ended up going with Mr. Rolik and the Spicer Pro pkg with tie rod upgrades to 11/16 and felt it was the best deal going, and with the simplicity of getting it all from one place. You need to compare the entire package, as Rolik includes things that others don't, like the eccentric cam bolts. I am pleased. They also offer the Spicer version of the offset control arm bushings like Moog. Lee.

I have the 11/16 tie rods and cam bolts for the UCA, as well as the Spicer version of the Moog problem solvers....The price I posted from rock auto was Everything except the torsion bars and strut rods...
I wouldn't even consider the kits from PST and the like advertised in the mags, You have no idea what they are or from where

Hi I just got to this part in my restoration. I'm about to remove the upper control arms and I purchased MOOG bushings. I'm not very impressed with the quality of these parts. This is my first experience with MOOG, the metal already has some surface rust right out of the box. got these from Advance Auto. And yes they do say made in Mexico.The box they came in was made in USA.
That aint cool  I was told MOOG was made here
