From your original post I got the impression that money savings was at or near the top of your list, so that is why I sent you the info on the rubber (factory) type kit.
I run rubber on everything BUT the Addco sway bar end link bushings and I am quite happy with the results BTW, but it's a personal decision.
As to the P-S-T parts I quoted - just a note in case it's not perfectly clear - I have no connection with or to the company and I was neither recommending not advising against using their stuff. The reason I posted that stuff was:
I. I was curious about the idler arm pricing in particular that another poster spoke about;
II. The kit is a very popular way to do this.
I've seen much talk about where to get parts and where they come from. In a Thread(topic) of my own I was interested in how folks here felt about China brake parts - in particular soft brake hoses, and I got mixed replies ... or rather replies with mixed opinions. Both Advance Auto Parts and a local wholesale/retail parts supplier sell China parts in different packaging, one specifying Taiwan. Here I see one recommending Moog and another poster in this thread or another thread stating that Moog contracts off-shore as well.
I don't know what the safe bet is on this stuff anymore. :(
