I bought the kit from the seller "bestsuspension". While there were some problems with the shipping as you know how well UPS treats heavy packages, the seller made things right. I put all the things on this weekend and didn't have any issues. The boxes were labeled "OE Parts" most likely from China, but all the location labels were blacked out or removed

As mentioned above a lot of parts are made from the same places. At one time in a past life I worked at a company that mfg suspension parts. We not only put the parts in the Brand name boxes we also put the same parts in plain label boxes. At some time it was decided the plain label parts wouldn't get the black oxide coating. While the black oxide might keep the part from rusting for a while it's not long term. But otherwise the parts were made with the same processes and same quality of parts.
