I rember reading a post on another site saying that World Suspension was not good quality.
I bought TRW brand from Advance.
 
I'm generally pretty leary about buying that type of part off Ebay, or actually anyone selling it dirt cheap, I'd be afraid of getting the reject parts..., unless it's a known distributer, but there Are good deals to be had...
 
You can deffinitely buy them off eBay, and hope they are good quality, and that you won't have to replace them a month later.

Or, you can spend a few more dollars (unless your time installing the possibly inferior parts is not worth anything to you), and get some Moog control arms from places like five Star Ford, rock auto, etc.

On a side note, even RA has been known to sell the wrong stuff. I ordered a set of bushings for my 98's Ps rack, and they were totally the wrong design. I called them up, and the guy on the phone was adamant about them being the right bushings. Needless to say, Maxx found a set in some warehouse in timbuktu nowhere.

I have a brand new pair of UCA coming from Arnott off eBay for $119 delivered for both. O'reillys auto supply wanted $109.00 each. Arnotts are suspose to be OEM. They look like OEM as opposed to the Moogs which have all kinds of adjustments on the arms so they can possibly loosen with time and come apart. JMHO.
There is a Best suspension also and he has lower control arms for about $100 for the pair as opposed to trying to replace the bushing in the lower one. I do not have the tools to press out a bushing and press in a new one?
