We have had spotty success with everything but the OEM units, which are always perfect. Cardone is a hard no for pretty much anything unless it’s a last resort.
Pros: OEM units always perfect
Cons: Cardone is a hard no

Cons: did not fit

Same shit happened to my rattlecan rebuild from cardone on my miata. At the end of a day of autocross it was leaking from both sides of the rack as well as both ends of the input shaft. What a fucking waste of money.
Cons: leaking from both sides, leaking from input shaft, waste of money

Cardone parts in general are not good and their remanufactured stuff is more like they washed it and put it in a new box.
Cons: poor quality, remanufactured poorly

On the other hand, we had a significant amount of issues with calipers remanufactured by Cardone.
Cons: significant issues
As far as Cardone... I had 2 rebuilts from them on my Chrysler that were crap on install, and finally went to a "NEW". As for my Cabbies... I had 1 rebuilt Cardone that crapped out on install, went with NEW there. Firmly believe that new is better, unless I rebuild the thing myself. Cardone also furnished 2 rebuilt Passenger side CV's. The First one crapped out 3 hours after install. The replacement lasted 5 days, and broke on the inside knuckle, and ruined the differential...... Cardone is CAR DONE in my book.... Easier to buy some things new. Don't get me started on Alternators.....
Pros: new is better
Cons: rebuilt crap on install, crapped out quickly
