I don't know if this is true or not, but it was posted on a Mustang site I belong to up here in Toronto.
"DO NOT USE MOOG.
There is a reason that all of us parts suppliers have dropped them. The facility that they were using for production burnt down. They were buying whatever stock they could get and putting it in MOOG boxes. That's why you will get 2 with the same part number but one has a grease fitting and a blue boot and the other has a red boot and no fitting. You are paying a premium for a 3rd line product in most cases."
"Wasn't that fire like...5 years ago? "
""Yes it was and the product is still being shipped from China. The warehouses are saturated with 2nd rate parts in Moog boxes."
Maybe any of you guys have heard the same?
