premium tie rods

Hey guys just got back from changing out my 37's with stockies for the winter and turns out the tie rods are on their way out (I knew this would happen with 37's) Anyways are their specific brands that are better than others? I am sure the ones I have on their are economy and I want premium. Only problem I have had with my lift really so I am quite happy.

I am shy of 90K, and I have recently replaced the inner and outer tie rods with MOOG parts(along with MOOG U&L balljoints). I've always had great luck with MOOG parts. I've also read about some people's bad luck with MOOG, but they're an oddity IMHO. They are a bit more $ than the economy choices.

I honestly would also consider Raybestos (Spicer chassis stuff relabled) tie rods and ball joints. Should be as good or better than MOOG. I say that because Raybestos come coated where as MOOG come in bare steel, and Raybestos have a poly boot vs a rubber one from MOOG.
