Front Control Arms

So, OK, I am just back from the shop and I need new front control arms and struts. Looking to order from Rock Auto. Are the AC Delco OEM control arms preferable to the MOOG, or vice versa? The MOOG are considerably cheaper, both are cast and not sheet metal.

Never Mind

I had to order to meet a schedule, so I went entirely with AC Delco - control arms, struts and shocks. Amazingly, according to my mechanic, sway bar bushings look fine.

You’ll be fine with that order.

OldSwede….how many miles on the sway bar bushings? I would replace them as well if they are as old as the rest of the front end....regardless of how they 'look'. BTW, I feel you made the right choice on the LCA's.
