As a former professional tech, I've never, ever had a problem with a moog part. Be aware there are counterfeit (damn Chinese) parts, buy from a trusted source. There is a recent post describing the correct casting and dust boot markings on Genuine Moog parts. If the price is too good to be true, they're suspect, and probably fake. Wilcox is a trusted supplier, from a satisified customer.

Just to add to this:
Our USA suspension kit comes with Moog and/or Dana joints. The lowers are always Moog, the uppers are in most cases Dana Corp.
It is just my opinion, but I don't think it makes a difference to me if I use Dana or Moog from a quality stand point and the USA kits are all we install in our shop.
If I had my preference I would actually use the Dana upper over the Moog based on the appearance factor. The Dana upper ball joint reflects a more original style joint vs. the "Top Hat" design by Mood. (or FMM, Federal Mogul Moog).

I was leaning towards Moog, so I found the cheapest price and ordered from Jeg's. I decided this project has been such a pain I NEVER want to do it again, so I want the best parts.
