After going through 4 AutoZone LCA's in less than 18 months, I can safely say that no matter which you use, you will end up replacing it in less than 5000 miles.

That's less than 2 oil changes, if you're wondering.

So for so good for the Spicer SHO specific LCA's I picked up at RockAuto.com, that would be my recommendation over the shit that AutoZone is hawking lately.

We also have them at SHO Source: Lower Control Arm

Loudsho, are those greasable AND sealed? I didn't think there was such a thing, but it kinda looks that way in the picture on your site.

They are greasable but the rubber boots come already installed which I found to be a pain for Moog.

Installed and properly seated? WOW...ya...thats hard to get accomplished on a moog.

I've enjoyed the lifetime warranty on the Moogs. It has been necessary and appreciated because I wear the ball joints out in about 50,000-80,000 miles. Frisky driving tends to do that.
