anyone ever buy this kit and use it? The price seems reasonable for what you get for sure but is it quality stuff? How are the ball joints? I'm leaning towards doing all Moog stuff in the front end but would like some thoughts....

I'd say the Moog stuff is significantly more expensive. The CARS kit is $200 with tie rod ends, ball joints, etc......I think all said and done I will have an additional $125 in the Moog stuff...maybe? I drive the car during the summer months regularly so the extra cost up front will be worth it...I just question the quality of the CARS pieces. I was hoping that somebody was running it so we would have some feedback but literally EVERYONE I have talked to has gone with Moog and/or Spicer Professional Grade parts.

A buddy of mine did the front end in his 68 Chevelle last fall with all Spicer parts (he's a ASE Tech) and he swears by the Spicer bits.....I just have never had a Moog piece fail me is all
