Just like the title says, which cheap ball joint brands are best to use.

Don't say Moog, if I could afford Moog I wouldn't be posting this thread.

I need to replace ALL of my Ball Joints. Left and Right side Uppers & Lowers.

I'm on a Tight Budget so can't afford $$Moog$$ Soooooo, these are the (3) im looking at,

(1)--- Raybestos "service grade" Ball Joints.

(2)--- AC Delco "advantage" Ball Joints.

(3)--- Mevotech Ball Joints.

Out of those three, which would be the better ball joints to use?

Has anyone used any of these? And if so what are your thoughts? Quality? Durability?

Thanks for any help.

I've had really good luck with the AC Delco. But that was on my old 65 Chevy P/U. I installed them about 20yrs ago and they are still holding up great.

Raybestos and AC Delco are probably the ones to go after. AC Delco usually being known for making GM parts has been great at making OEM parts for all manufactures.

Just get the ones at NAPA!!!

Thanks guys. So that's (2) for the AC Delco. What's the differences between there regular line up and the advantage line up?

Well I probably should have posted I will be ordering from trused rockauto.

I'm ordering some other stuff as well so figured id just order the ball joints with my other stuff from rockauto.

Regular - Made in the USA
Advantage - Made in Mexico

Oh ok. So is the Raybestos "service grade" stuff made in Mexico too. Because Raybestos has a service grade and a professional grade.

I'm not quite sure if it's Mexico but it'd be Mexico, Taiwan, China. etc.

I think I read somewhere that the Mevotech company is out of Canada? So is that brand made in Canada?

jake92

They are form Canada but from what I've looked up on them and haven't been able to find where they're parts are produced.

their high end line has lifetime warranty.
three years on their mid line.

I got all 4 of my spicers from 4 wheel parts for right at $100. And FWIW, It was actually cheaper than autozone's duralast brand.
