Keep in mind that they use ball bearings in an application that should have tapered roller bearings for superior impact resistance, so the lower rolling resistance gained has to be paid-back with abysmally shorter lives on rough roads.

I was very pleased with the Moog units I replaced factory OEM with. Available on RockAuto. Originally ordered some cheaper ones, but on inspecting them on receipt, the quality was really lacking on metal finish and milling. So I sent them back and ordered Moog, and been performing well since install.
