Is anyone using Mevotech Supreme front end components? I need to replace the upper arms, lower ball joints, and tie rod ends. The comparable Moog problem solver parts are 50% more expensive. I'm curious how well they hold up over time. I'm not doing any wheeling, it's just a daily driver 2wd and I don't really want to have to do this job again in a year or two. I drive about 10K per year. Mevotech's literature looks good, but how much of that can I really trust?
Obviously I could go cheaper, but the point is not to have to repeat this job and not have a failure. Failure of a ball joint can be catastrophic.
I have seen mentions of Mevotech in other threads, but they are pretty old and make no mention of longevity. I'm hoping by now, some of those users might have some meaningful input on longevity of the Mevotech Supreme.
