Keith, it's been my experience that Taiwan makes very good auto parts. Light years ahead of China. I think just about any old car & truck parts vendor will confirm that.
I don't know if any Moog parts are USA-made these days. OSHA, EPA, and insurance costs have simply killed American manufacturing. I had a huge foundry customer in the Midwest that shut down operations because it was virtually impossible to meet EPA regulations without raising prices sky high.
