Worth Repairing? - '94 Accord LX
#12
That's Autozone's part number for their "best" axle. If you plan on the shop doing the work - as opposed to DIY - this is a decent axle. If it fails Autozone will replace it as long as you own the car, and your shop will probably do the labor free if it's within a year or so. You might want to ask the shop how long they'll stand behind the part's labor since they're selling you a lifetime warranty part.

Thanks for the info. Based on what you said, these are two of the parts that I think match up in Advance Auto. Can someone confirm please?
Control Arm (FA4062): Driveworks Control Arm Rear Upper Right 520-630: Advance Auto Parts
Control Arm (FA4063): Driveworks Control Arm Rear Upper Left 520-629: Advance Auto Parts
However, I can't seem to find the equivalent axle and oil temperature sensor on Advance Auto. Any help would be great.
Prices for the control arms are identical on both sites, but Advance Auto has a 15% discount that's applicable for in-store pick-up, whereas the discount on Autozone only applies to online purchases.

Maybe I'm getting off track but are you doing the work, or the shop? Usually the when the shop is doing the work they pick the parts, charge their markup, and offer some kind of a labor warranty if the part goes bad. When you bring your own parts in then usually their's no labor warranty...it's not real uncommon for an aftermarket axle to show symptoms of failure within a few months of being installed. Anecdotal, I know, but I bought and installed a Cardone reman axle and within a few months it started clicking. Advance swapped out the axle for free and it's been trouble free for two years, but still I'm glad it has a lifetime warranty.

I would only recommend MOOG suspension parts if you don't want to get OEM. They are second to OEM.
Front upper
Moog RK90446 - 41.82 @ Amazon
Moog RK90447 - 41.82 @ Amazon
Rear upper:
MOOG RK80356 - 32.71 @ Amazon
MOOG RK80357 - 30.94 @ Amazon
If you need them now, order online @ Advance Auto and pickup from store. That's if they have them at your location. You will be able to enter your zip code and see which store has the part.
Those axles from Autozone are remanufactured junk. I realized that after going through 3 sets and finally getting some from Advance that are "New" vs AutoZones remanufactured.
Oil pressure sender, I would get from the dealer. The OEM oil pressure sensor is equal or cheaper than a aftermarket, but lasts longer.
Here is a list of their coupon codes that I keep around when getting items from Advance. You can save more probably if you purchase each item separately.
Codes:
TRT37 for $30 off $75
TRT41 for $40 off $100
A124 - $10 off $30+ / $25 off $70+ / $40 off $110+
TRT30 - 30% off sitewide, max savings $50
TRT25 - $20 off order over $50. Online Only.
DOTW34 - 25% off nearly everything! $50 maximum savings. Online only.
MFD13 - $20 Off an Order of $60 or More. Online Only
P20 - 20% Off Your Order. $50 maximum savings. Online only.
BIG20 - $20 off orders of $75 or more. Online Only.
WD25 - $50 off orders over $125. Online Only.
Good luck.

You guys are amazing. Thanks so much for all the help. I'll check with the auto shop about the labor warranty thing.
In that case, do you happen to know which specific axle I should get from Advance?
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
