I have to respectfully disagree, THIS very topic is going right now over on another forum I frequent & pretty much everybody is saying Moog is garbage these days & has been for the past 15 or so years. Lots of their stuff is made in India, & that's the worst quality stuff like this being made today. Guys are saying Mevotech or Pro Forged.

Proforged is made in Taiwan or China, but seems to be of decent quality. I have a set of their tall ball joints on my A-body.

Never heard of Mevotech, but they also appear to be made in China. Reviews I'm seeing of Mevotech are that they are complete and total garbage, and always have been.

Howe is supposedly made in the US, and has an excellent reputation. But you'll pay for it.

And the Moog ball joints and tie rod ends all stated clearly that they were made in the USA.
So I respectfully disagree agree that Moog joints are rubbish.
I find them, At least in the fitments for our cars to be top quality.
As per your other forum. Can't imagine why anyone would recommend off shore joints.
