Suspension parts

I can get TRW (ball joints, shafts, tie rod ends, ect) at Advance for a little over $300. Early Classic has Moog for about a $100 more. It it worth the difference?

No. I consider Moog and TRW to have equal quality. I shop for front end parts at three different levels, in descending order:

Moog/TRW
Store brands other than Autozone
Autozone parts

On visual inspection alone, I have not liked what I've seen from AZ. Some of their stuff is pretty shoddy. But I haven't been there in a long time, so maybe they've changed. I don't always know the supplier of the parts and I know that sometimes other parts stores sell the sorry stuff that AZ sells, but this is my experience. Good luck!
