Control arm MOOG or MEYLE
I am using MOOG for my lower control arms and they seem pretty good. they fit with zero problems.
Pros: good quality, perfect fit
Vehicle:
Acura RSX
I have used a Meyle HD front end kit on one of my Phaetons and it seemed like good quality control arms.
Pros: good quality
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
I've swapped out the control arms for Meyle HD ones. Solid forged aluminium instead of hollow steel.
Pros: solid forged aluminium
Get Moog or Mevotech Supreme and install them correctly - torque to spec with the LCA under load - and they're gonna last a good long time.
Pros: long lasting, good quality
As a former analyst for an auto parts distributor... Moog was the most popular and better quality for control arms that we sold across the country. AC Delco was 2nd...
Pros: Moog popular, good quality
Control arms Moog all day, only the Moog control arms made in Germany. If they are made anywhere else they are trash! Moog control arms made in Germany I cannot vouch enough for them!
Pros: ausgezeichnete Qualität (Deutschland)
Cons: schlechte Qualität (nicht Deutschland)
OEM if you can (but thats not why you’re on rock auto) , Moog is decent if you can find them. AC Delco if nothing else. The others unfortunately in my experience wear out within a year or less. Some people may have different experiences but in general that parts game is whack right now.
Pros: Moog decent, AC Delco good
Cons: others wear out quickly
I once got a Mercedes control arm when I ordered a Honda control arm. The Mercedes control arm came in the Honda control arm Moog box.
Cons: wrong part, wrong car
Vehicle:
Honda
I check back on the large bushing on the new front lower control arms after a year, I had two different set of aftermarket control arms where the bushing failed before 10K miles. (one pair were Moog) I ended up getting OE arms since the orginal lasted 200K miles.
Cons: bushing failed quickly
Mileage: 16093 km
Better than the MOOG control arm that has a squeaky bushing
Cons: squeaky bushing
