I don’t like replacing original stuff unnecessarily, because often the old OEM part would have outlasted the new budget aftermarket part.
These are worn out completely. I doubt MOOG would be crappy, they are a great brand... just wondered how they compare to the ACDelco.... dont want to have to do them again anytime soon after.

I’ve installed Moog and AC Delco LCA’s over the years, both hood brands, I currently have Delphi TC 5580 ball joints and Moog K201285 rear bushings, been in over a year now , no problem. I did have to get the hardware for the ball joints .

As far as buying the MOOG LCA from rockauto.... everything needed is included? I would assume it would be complete just as the ACDelco's were....
