anybody used oreillys Masterpro parts? looking for tie rods
I need an inner and outter tie rod on passenger side. I know moog is best, but I don't want to pay 110$ for their inner and outter when I can get the masterpro inner and outter for 39$. ANybody used their parts? any good for my application?

Yeah I saw that, but, with shipping it will be pretty close I think. Plus, they only have a 12month warranty. Oreillys has a lifetime warranty on their moogs. And 110 is after tax.

Most of us work on the other principal! MOOG are known to be good parts, some others out there are known to be bad parts - we pick the good parts without wanting to be the Guinea Pig on the "new" unknown parts.

Not saying Master Pro parts won't work, but Master Pro is O'Reilly's cheaper "value" line of parts. Others here recommend MOOG because its a good brand, used many times before, and if you read reviews on this site and elsewhere for other vehicles where both have been used, you'll generally see a "MOOG is better" consensus.

Just today I helped my cousin put master pro tie rods on his F150. We had to return one because the end of the threaded stud was cut cockeyed and the nut wouldn't go on it. I agree with the moog. If it was a sway bar bushing or sway bar end link I would try it but I would hate to be a guinea pig on a tie rod

Soooo, I orginally bought the inner and outter moog from oreillies for 115$. So i returned them and just bought both sides at summitracing.com for 125$. Ill also be getting a couple boots online and i ruined one side, and im sure ill ruin the other as they are realllllyyy stiff. I wanted to replace both sides as the other side might go out eventually, and theres free shipping if the order is more than 99$.
