Re-pop 73+ UCAs

I'm sure you've seen these by now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Uppe...its=Make:Dodge|Model:Dart&hash=item25610a0a95

They are made by Suspension International Parts. Turns out its a company in Mexico (not China). I think these are a pretty good deal IF you can't find OEM ones. I'm sure the steel arms are probably fine, I just worry about the ball joint. I'm pretty sure the ball joint is NOT moog or TRW....bushings? less important.

But for $150 for ready to bolt on pair. pretty tempting if you dont' have junk yard access near by! My preference; OEM not repop.

Just throwin' it out there......

Like it matters. Moog and TRW ball joints for our ancient applications are Chinese crap these days.

wow swing69, thats a smoking deal! I don't need any but that's still good news for the A Body populous..

The only problem I have is that they list them as fitting 67-76 A bodies. That's two different A arms with two different ball joints. They would be fine if you were converting over to BBP, but as a replacement for my 67 they would be incorrect.

They mention a different part number for cars needing the other ball joint.
