well they do have a great feedback score with over 15000 transactions, so you shouldn't have any trouble with getting what you order or a return if need be.

but what brand are those parts? they're probably cheap chinese parts, which isn't always a bad thing but you might have some fitment issues.

is your truck a 2wd?

 

Aww crap!!! I did not see if was for a 2wd. Thanks any way.

 

How do I kill a thread?

 

just leave it be and let it die, it won't take long.

 

or we can just turn it into and another OT thread becuase we always get side tracked.....lol

$199, which is still really cheap.
lots of positive feedback.

my own opinion is that i prefer to buy locally, where i can easily return anything that doesn't fit, or that they pull wrong, or fails, or whatever. most local places/products also have lifetime warranties that are really honored. having to do everything by UPS shipping can lead to a long period of down time, and i usually can't stand that.
if you're in some remote place and already accustomed to that, then i wouldn't hesitate. the parts are probably about the same as you'd get at autozone or advance.

i don't see any actual warranty of 1 year or lifetime or anything.

 

Another. Cheaper (148 buck). 1 year warranty. Scary.

^ 57,000 feedbacks and 99.9% positive. must be doing something right.

 

I bought my one ton conversion parts from a similar e bay company. I needed to redo my steering and moog was out of the budget.
So I bought what I needed and installed them. I ended up with one moog piece because the pitman arm tre is different on a 2000 and up 1500. Again, time constrains.
Visual quality compares to moog. All the ends are greasable, which is important to note because the "cheap or 2nd rate" brands sold at popular parts stores usually aren't. The ball sockets were tight.
I've ran the system since fall and while I haven't checked the joints recently, everything still feels tight at the wheel.
I grew up buying parts before warranties, so when these pieces wear out, I'll replace them. If I can afford moog, I'll buy thier parts. If the moog tre joint wears out as quickly, no.
I'm no expert, that's simply been my experience.
Oh...I'll likely buy moog ball joints. Why? I don't know. I've always bought them?
