i have both 1986 and 1976 C10 trucks that i use as daily drivers for my company. ( well not so much the 76 but the 86) both need complete front ends and although ive always used Moog parts im wondering if any of you all have something better. My trucks haul and are driven by various drivers and also tow heavy loads and while i dont want to break the bank, id like something good also i need springs in front

I recommend moog parts. We did balljoints,upper/lower inner shafts, inner/outer tierod ends, adjustable sleeves. All moog, from what others have said they are the best brand for original replacement.

moog is the best aftermarket replacement,

if you want to go cheaper, you could buy some of the suspension parts from auto zone, they have a liftime warranty on the suspension parts. most are mc quary norris i believe.

its all up to you though.

Take a look at the NAPA Chassis line of ball joints. They're awesome even to look at. BTW Moog manufacturers napa's second line of steering/chassis parts. First line I think is TRW?? or whoever owns them now. Price is quite a bit higher though.
