Default How much should Moog Ball joints be >> ?

I had a local parts shop find Moog upper and lower ball joints for my 1996 1500 5.9L 2wd 199,190 miles Ram.

They called me and quoted ~$335.00 for the pair of upper bj and lower bj.

How does that sound?


Adding tierod ends to the order doubled that price...another $300.00. How does that price compare?

thanks again,
Chris

For Moog, about right. They're crazy expensive.

I just looked it up and that's about right. Autodrive is just as good and half the price.

If you can get them at that price, THEN TAKE EM!!!.LOL


I spent 192.93 EACH for my moogs. Almost 90,000 miles on them and they are a tight as a frog ***. And that's water tight!


Good luck.

I called Oriely's Auto Parts and they quoted me $61 for upper and $70 for the lower (or the other way around on the price). I live in Tulsa, OK so I am not sure if that makes a difference.

It's 61 for uppers and 70 for lowers. I work at oreillys in Springfield. Auto drive is like 20 bucks a peice and they're just as good.
