Default Lower Control Arms Question

Just wanted to find out for those have replaced their LCAs what brand they got and how long it lasted or what they recommend. Same with Ball joints and sway bar links. I've been researching and reading reviews and quite a mixed bag out there between Moog, Mevotech, Dorman, TRQ......

Thanks!!

We don't really use the DIY section for questions, so I'll move this over to the Suspension section where it's more likely someone will read it & help you.

They are all good brands. I think TRQ is sold on Car-Part.com which gives a 10 year warranty I believe. I usually go with Moog for ball joints I've never had an issue with them. I just put TRQ LCA on my 05 BMW and they have been good. It's all on what is important to you. Warranty, price and quality. TRQ is a good medium but Moogs for sure with ball joints. With that being said I did just do complete suspension on my 07 accord and used all Moog parts on that car.

Thanks. I'm leaning to just getting Moog. I've spoken to 1AAuto who sell TRQ but I did not get a good feeling with their return policy. It sounds like a hassle dealing with them. I've also seen other not so favorable comments about TRQ in other forums. Only thing I wasn't too excited about Moog is the greasable sway bars. But I guess it depends how you look at it. I agree about their BJs. Good comments on those.

I'll probably get my stuff from Amazon. They charge slightly more but they are always great with delivery and returns. Rock Auto sells them too but delivery and returns not so great.
