Duralast ball joints?

[JoeR]

Both my uppers and lowers need to be replaced. Anyone had any experience with duralast ball joints. Are these OK or should I spend the extra $ and get moogs?

They're absolutely fine.

 

If you get one that's been in box for over 1 year, chances are it's a MOOG ball joint. Autozone recently changed manufacturers, so our new ball joint manufacturers are Federal Mogul and Qualis.

 

 

The lifetime warranty is a plus. If you can find them cheaper online, go for it.

I just replaced the upper and lowers on my 4x4 and I just got the ones off World Suspension. DLZ is the manufacturer. Seem to be decent units, even have grease fittings. Only time will tell. I did order the wrong set for the bottom though so if you need the lowers and have a 2wd I have a set of them for cheap, already greased. I just need to get rid of them. $20 shipped if you want em.
