I have a 90 Pontiac Grand Prix with Koni adjustable struts, strut tower braces, Addco sway bars, 225/55/16 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S, and I am looking to get new lower ball joints for it.
I went to my Kragen.com and they carry the following 3 items:
McQuay Norris FA1634 $34.99 TRW 104163 $69.99 Tread Saver S104163 $29.73
I know that Dana owns McQuay Norris and that McQuay Norris makes decent parts. But a few years ago it seemed like Moog/TRW parts were a little bit beefer than the McQuay Norris.
Since the Tread Saver part # is the same part # as the TRW part: Is Tread Saver owned by Federal Mogul?
Does TRW still make parts as TRW, or is this TRW part probably old stock?
Will I still get a (beefier / better mounting) part spending the $70 instead of getting the $30-$35 parts?
(I don't mind spending more, if I am getting more.)
