Cheap or not so cheap Suspension parts

As I reassemble my car ( 69 Dart ) I’m at the stage where I am going through the front suspension. It has a 74 duster big bolt pattern disc set up on it. My question is I’m ordering through Rock auto,I can get a Mevotech ball joint for $8.00 ( upper ) or a Moog unit for $30. i’ve always been a Moog fan but have heard some not great things about them in recent years . My question is is it worth the money to “ upgrade “ to Moog ?
Moog sucks anymore. For what you're doing, I'd go with someone different anyway. PST, Firm Feel, Hotchiss etc. why risk a classic to a cheap asian made part?
