Email the seller and make sure they ARE NOT Quality OE Parts....he used to use Chassis 1 parts which are ok...then he switched to Quality OE Parts...then someone complained and he said he was switching back

I just got a reply from him...

Hi, these are definately NOT the OE brand parts. I had some problems with the OE brand. The OE arms never came with the grease fittings. These ball joints do and they even look much beefier. I stood behind the OE ones anyways, but you wont be having problems with these.

Thanks....Ara.

yea i bought from Best Supension or World Suspension and my ball-joints are almost shot...I think Dubbya or BEJAY bought form Arm Can when he was using the OE stuff and got a refund and then he switched back to the other stuff...my advice goto AZ get some MOOG ball-joints....buy some ES bushings and have everythign pressed in and out

Thanks for the replies, interresting discussion...

I did a little investigation (prices are in Canadian dollars - US multiply by 0.89) :

For 1 Ball Joint

EBay: 25$ shipped
Local autopart store: 72$
Dealer: 220.72$ (comes with the tab)

Anyway - gives me a pretty good idea of the "quality" on Ebay!

for suspension parts, you don't need to get it form ebay. Trust me, you'll pay more on shipping and customs then u think and in the end it'll be a hassle. You want good bushings, get Energy suspension. Lemieux Performance(usually for muscle cars) carries Energy products. I got my control arm bushing, motor mounts and sway bar bushings from him. He's at the St-jean Baptiste exit from the 40...cool store also
