Yep. My driver side UCA didn't fit so I thought we had to pound the bushing out but it just slid in and out with light tap. The one I got to replace it did not move at all and fit perfect. No more clunks. I haven't received my refund yet.

 

So don't go with moog? I need a few suspension parts too.

 

I've been nothing but pleased with moog. They're a lot better quality than the last 2 sets of tie rod ends and drag link ends i've had that lasted less than 6 months each.

 

Both bushings in both new control arms are showing wear (shiny metal) where the arm is presumably moving around.

 

I've had nothing but bad luck with moog lower ball joints. My truck - I can understand, I offroad a lot. But when you see them fail after 30k on a stock truck driven by a 60 year old, its dissapointing to say the least. For the amount of work it takes to replace the parts, I stick with oem lower balljoints. Even as rough as I am on equipment, I still get around 80k miles out of them.

 

I picked up a couple of new uca's today my nearest Moog 'authorized' distributor - O'Reilly AP. There is a subtle difference in the bushings. Just finished installing and the noise is gone.

The O'Reilly price was about $28 more for each arm.

If you think about it there's nothing stopping someone from purchasing a lot of defective name-brand parts and selling them through Amazon... lesson learned.

 

Hopefully Moog works well, I just bought some UCAs with bushings & serviceable ball joints a few weeks ago. About to buy their lower ball joints and have them installed in the OEM arms. Hopefully they aren't outsourced to China. Moog has had such a high reputation over the past few decades.
