Question Not MOOG....but maybe too good to pass

I realize these are not MOOG, but my truck is completely stock and this seems like a decent deal. The seller assures me that there are grease zerks on all the joints.

Should I get them? Would you?

Would I? No, I wouldn't put them on my truck. What is A.I Brand? Failure of any of these components means a certain wreck...at highway speeds, injury or death. You don't have to buy Moog but at least get parts from a reputable manufacturer who's done the proper engineering and testing (ie. Spicer, Raybestos, AC Delco, Moog, etc). A.I MAY be reputable but I wouldn't even know how to find out. Google offered no help...

I'll buy coil packs and shift cables from ebay but not suspension parts unless they brand names. Besides you only get an 18 month warranty. So if your part fails after 18 months you are SOL. What do you do if it fails before 18 months? Ship it back. I call my parts store and bring in the old one and leave with a new one. Same day replacement. Granted I pay a more but my truck is only down for a day at the very most.

You save on price and they save on grammar....

All this parts are after market O.E & A.I Brand with the highest quality standards including 18 months warranty…!

New in box this parts are made, tested and certified by our quality managment system that has passed the ISO 9001:2000 international attestations, before arrive to our store.

Our consistently low prices save our average clients more than 43.7% on suspension parts v.s. local auto parts stores!!!

First sentence; All this parts instead of all these parts.

Second sentence; this parts instead of these parts. managment instead of management.

Third sentence; our average clients. ??? are you an average client?

Go ahead and order them and let us know how you make out.....

I see your point. Had I thought of this perspective, no need to ask the question in the first place.

Thanks
