Hi there

Did anyone buy this kit and if so, how is it?

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Ball-Joint-Contro...QQcmdZViewItem

 

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

 

dont waste ur money... they are only gonna break adn ur gonna be pissed like me.... dont do it..

 

MaximaSE96: Thanks a bunch, I'll do that!

f50maranello: Did you buy from this particular guy?

 

no i didnt i bought stuff from "worldsuspension" and they suck 8 months after i installed inner and outer tie rods and they are bad already... look im not trying to be an *** but seriously if you want something that is quality get it from the dealer... you get what u payed for...

 

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.

No really, thanks for the feedback, that's what I was looking for...

 

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

 

Cool, thanks! I'll check them out for sure!
