Moog is fine. Just don’t use the moog ball joints and install Sankei 555 or OEM ball joints and you’ll be fine. I am running Moog Suspention and Sankei ball joints. 4 years no issues.
Pros: 4 years no issues

I put MOOG tie rods on my truck about two months ago and I liked the quality of the parts.
Pros: liked the quality
I was quoted 1250.00 for ONLY TIE RODS. This chick went on you tube and watched fcp euro put tie rods on my exact 09 xc90, guess who did the job herself for $100 (moog tie rods) ME .
Pros: job done for $100
Vehicle:
Volvo XC90
Moog is my shops go to. Never had issues with tie rods from them.
Pros: no issues
Moog is a decent brand from my experiences. Haven't used a TJ setup but I have used a ZJ setup. Was good for a stock upgrade but with 6" lift I assume you have larger tires and TBH it still is a lot of weight hanging out at the ends and there still may be some slop in the steering overall.
Pros: decent brand, good upgrade
Cons: some slop in steering
Vehicle:
Jeep
I ordered “Moog” upper and lower control arms to rebuilt the whole front end of my grand marquis. They all came in Moog boxes but they looked different. Only 1 of 4 control arms looked legit from the pics I sent to the “Moog” rep.
Cons: looked different
Moog parts are dogshit these days unfortunately. I have failed to learn my lesson like 3x now, I keep losing ball joints and tie rods at like 30k.
Cons: losing ball joints, tie rods
Mileage: 30000 km
For Honda Accord/TL/TSX, all the aftermarket ball joints are junk. In my personal experience, Moog lower ball joints last 2-3 years, while most other brands will last a year or less.
Pros: Moog lasts 2-3 years
Cons: other brands last less
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
I couldn't recommend moog..... Unless you are going to sell the car in 5000 miles.
Cons: poor durability, not recommended
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 8047 km
I would just avoid MOOG. For about 5 years every moog item with a ball joint I've installed failed early, so I stopped recommending MOOG around the time COVID started.
Cons: failed early, poor reliability
