I installed MOOG Tie rods.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
This is a worthwhile upgrade for sure! I was about to drop some big bucks on heavy duty steering because after *every* off road trip my alignment was off. I don't wheel hard and I only have 32'' tires. Put on one of these and the alignment is fine. Even after a trip to Rausch creek playing in the rocks all weekend.
Pros: worthwhile upgrade, alignment stable
Vehicle:
Jeep Cherokee
All 4 of my ball joints on my 05 f150 4x4 are new moogs. My first drive after they were all on felt awesome.
Pros: felt awesome
Vehicle:
Ford
I've replaced a radiator hose, a power steering pump, serpentine, clutch fan, a u joint, and I just did all four ball joints with Moog, and put shocks all around it at 190k this winter. I also just replaced all four o2 sensors when one went bad because at 191k....you figure you've gotten your money's worth!
Pros: good value, long lasting
Vehicle:
Dodge Dakota
Mileage: 190000 km
I think RockAuto has bad batches of these. Received a replacement that was worse than the first one and welded crooked. Same problem with subframe interference and not being able to line the back side up to thread the bolt in. Sent both back for refund. Picked up an OEM control arm from GAP and it installed without issue.
Cons: welded crooked, subframe interference
I replaced inner and outer tie rods, both sides, myself (Moog parts from Rock Auto, they weren't cheap). Smooth sailing until the brakes started shaking again at about 8k miles after the replacement. What are the chances of high-quality parts failing so early?
Cons: premature failure, brake shaking
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 12875 km
Look at the size of the ball on the Moog brand (L) next to the VW (R).
Cons: small ball size
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
