02 Explorer XLT 4.0
I know that Moog is the best or the "go to" brand when it comes to ball joints but are they also the best when it comes to bushing? I'm in the process of redoing all my ball joints and busing in the front end of my 2WD 02 Explorer XLT and was jw if I needed to use moog bushings.

I kinda heard that Moog is not really the holy Grail anymore. I would be open to other brands personally. Where are you buying from?
 






Moog is a mixed quality line. Go to NAPA and get their premium line if you want quality. NAPAs value line is the same as Moog.

Want proof? Buy the Moog then head over to NAPA and compare.
 






Advance and Rock Auto. I've bought the front upper ball joints from Advance. And I bought the front lower ball joints, both tie-rod ends and the sway bar end link bushings/bolts from Rock Auto. I still have to do (or would like to do) everything on the rear, body mount bushings and tie-rod inner as well.

Thanks I'll definitely have to take a look.
