What other brands do you guys use? Ac Delco for gm stuff has gotten outrageous, I have seen some stuff from movetech and some others.. but I have never used them before. I really don't like cheap crap I'd rather pay for so.e quality without getting screwed.
That was the motivation for buying moog. I remembered the name being synonymous with quality. But that was back in the 70s through the 90s. I had no idea China had become their mfr of choice. I did use rock auto for the rest. I've used KYB for several vehicles for loaded struts , been pretty happy.
I got constant rate rear springs from Moog for my 05 ram, big disappointment there. Less than a year later the springs lost an inch of ride height and looked like they were salt sprayed for 10 years. This time I tried AC-delco constant rate springs for the rear. So far, I'm digging them. I honestly think the constant are better than the progressive.
Like you, I've seen this movetech line , haven't had the courage to pull the trigger on them.
I still believe in the old names. Raybestos, Wagner, Moog, A/C, Spicer/Dana to name a few. It seems most of the "big" names are joined under a common banner now. Dana and federal mogul are the big holders. Almost every product you purchase comes from one of their subsidiaries. Just like almost all "performance" junk falls under the Holley brand.
There really is no competition anymore between brands, the same parent companies get the profit. Ones in Michigan and the other in Ohio.
