Suspension Parts
Some time back I bought everything to rebuild the front suspension on my 66 C10. All new Moog parts. I had some health issues so things got put on the back burner. Long story short, I can only find 1 upper K6098 & 1 lower K6147 cross shaft that I bough. They are the older Made in USA shafts.
I'd heard about Moog outsourcing their parts manufacturing to China and sure enough when I go to Amazon and put in the Moog numbers, they say country of origin China. I need 4 new 73 - 87 ball joints too for the spindles I'm running. Does anybody make good USA parts anymore? Would you run 2 US cross shafts & 2 Chinese cross shafts? This will be just a daily driver. I've always trusted TRW/Moog but I've heard horror stories about the Chinese Moog parts. What to do? Who to buy from?
