I had issues with the bottom nuts on the ball joints. Meyle joints. They came loose, I got oem nuts instead of what they came with and alignment been good.
Pros: alignment been good
Cons: came loose
Only decent brand aftermarket wise is acdelco. Moog has been shit for a good 10 years or so.
Pros: decent aftermarket brand
Cons: Moog quality declined
I just installed 2 new moog ball joints on my mazda 3 last year and both fail horribly. I do drive on chicago roads. I took boot off and it was pretty dry. My new moog replacement came in and the boot comes off so easily it makes me wonder wtf happen to the company. I just hope the boot stays on my new ones and packed extra grease in there too. Just in case
Cons: failed horribly, dry boot, boot comes off easily
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
I regret putting 555 on mine some years ago, wish I'd known that they weren't oem when I ordered them. For the diff in price it's a no brainer to go oem (the lesson I learned).
Cons: regrettable choice, not OEM quality
